San Andreas
- This page is about the state and city of San Andreas. For the game, please see Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
San Andreas refers to two separate fictional locations in the Grand Theft Auto series of games.
In GTA 1 the city is based on San Francisco, California and bears resemblance to San Fierro in GTA San Andreas. Among the distinctive features of the city include sloped districts, tram lines (which appear only for show, although trams were considered early in the game's development), the Chinatown and "Soviet Hill" districts, and a large red bridge attempting to emulate the Golden Gate Bridge.
In GTA San Andreas, San Andreas is an entire American state based on the real states of California and Nevada. San Andreas appears to be comprised entirely of islands as the state is surrounded by water, however, several maps throughout the state depict the northern islands (Tierra Robada and Bone County) connecting to the mainland. San Andreas is subdivided into three cities and three counties, the cities of Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas, and Red County, Flint County and Bone County, with the two regions of Whetstone and Tierra Robada.
