I deleted the las venturas neighborhoods section because unlike los angeles and san francisco, las vegas was born as one city unlike the two former which consisted of several gold rush-era small towns that came together. -- Phil 12:41, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
Should we mention Foster Valley? It's a newly developed property located further south of San Fierro (but is still within the city's jurisdiction nevertheless), just southwest of of the Easter Bay Airport.
Of interesting note in the area is a row of identical cylindrical shaped buildings which slightly resembles those of the Oracle Corporation World Headquarters in Redwood Shores, California [1]. Orcale HQ is also located close to Foster City, a planned city just north of Oracle; this may explain the origin of Foster Valley's name. ╫ 25 ring-a-ding 15:38, 2 November 2005 (UTC) ╫
Does anyone have a picture of Area 69 that should be put up?
Finally! PICS!!! 68.148.12.214 05:07, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
So what exactly is this "Blue Hell"? Where do i find it? How can one confirm this?
I'll try to make this as short as possible. I am interested in creating a seperate article for Bayside. I could easily write up more using subcategories on bayside, such as the wealth, gangs, climate, uses, and features, as well as the basic information we already have. I was thinking of just creating the article and seeing what happens, but decided I would rather get a community opinion first. PeteShanosky 23:03, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I think that should be up again, it was a really cool and good part Supmyman7 18:45, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
How do you know the exact population numbers? Andman8 16:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
The smaller towns usually have signs on the roads going into them that state the population, but I have no idea where the entire state population or the population of the major cities comes from. I don't think it can be verified. MickBarnes 12:38, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
According to the instruction manual of 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City", Vice City has a population of 1.8 million. When one takes into account the original press releases for 'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas', which stated that each city in the state was roughly the size of Vice City, then prehaps the 2 million mark would be a sensible estimate. Couple this with the informtion on the signs before each rural town, one should have a rough population estimate for the state. - Eam91 12:59 (GMT) 11 April '07.
Should Restaurants be added to this page, or are they somewhere else?
How big in square kilometres is San Andreas? If someone was anal enough to figure out a population of randomly generated people, surely someone knows how big the place is... 86.132.181.61 13:09, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Actually, every town has its own sign with the population on it. Superior1 21:23, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
Ian Albert has created an excellent map on his website which is at a scale of 1 metre per pixel and a map size of 1.2gigapixels which suggests the map is 6x6km, 36 square kilometres. This is the total map size and not the land area but it still gives a good clue. BillPP ( Talk) 03:26, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
I doubt Angel Pine has a population of 7400. I think it only has a population of about 100.-- Taida 03:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
although in the game it looks too small to have that many people, there is a road sign near the town saying th epopulation of 7400. Saccerzd 00:09, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
To be fair, the whole game is a scaled down version of various places, just with the population claimed to be roughly equivalent to real life. mattbuck 16:21, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
I think we should create a Bone County article with more info on the towns.
Look, can someone just give me a map marking the location of a "Geyser" in Bone County so I can get on with my damn life? 72.141.232.95 15:05, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Try http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/file/924362/34165 - it's marked as Regular Tom, just North of the Big Ear and South East of the Sherman Dam. mattbuck 15:14, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Are you sure San Fierro is bigger than Las Venturas. It seems so much smaller than LV and looking at the map, its hard to tell. Has the area actually been worked out? -- Sam 10:11, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Information on the Brown Streak has been merged into this article, per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brown Streak Railroad. bd2412 T 21:12, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
how can blueberry be a 'fairly large town', whereas dillimore, which has the larger population, is described as 'a small town'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Saccerzd ( talk • contribs)
Taken fron the page: "Los Santos is the largest city in San Andreas. It is based on the real life Los Angeles County, including areas based on the city of Los Angeles; Long Beach; Inglewood; Beverly Hills; Compton; and Santa Monica." ...I added Compton to the list as it is obviously represented by Ganton. There are more that I beleive rate mentioning... I beleive the other beach with the peir represents Venice??! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.129.98.129 ( talk) 00:59, 6 March 2007 (UTC).
I think it should be changed to B. Anyone agree? -- Blair Hudson 05:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Shouldn't they be redirected to somewhere in the article? They are part of this state after all. TheBlazikenMaster 22:42, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Well, Chuckin' bell can go to the restaurant section, I will look closely through out the article myself, (or one of the three city articles) for Vinewood, if nobody else will. These might be unlikely, but they are still part of GTA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheBlazikenMaster ( talk • contribs) 17:06, 8 September 2007 (UTC) Ok, done. This discussion is over, bye. TheBlazikenMaster 00:39, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
I think, that Rusty Brown's Ring Donuts was intended to be a food chain at the beginning of the game, but as many things, such as the Hot Coffee, was removed. I mean, there are two locations of it on the game (One at the Market District in Los Santos and another west of San Fierro, near a buyable apartment, I think it's Paradiso there), plus it had textures of the inside (as seen in a cutscene early in the game, with Tennpenny, Pulaski and the latin guy) and even vending machines.

what the hell happened to the Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas main article pages there gone —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcanmoocanu ( talk • contribs) 02:52, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
That's a phase repeated several dozen times in the article. Really, are the people who read wikipedia articles that stupid? We're talking about a video game, most people reading this article will be intelligent enough to realize it's not real without being reminded at the beginning of every section. We have the intro. Zazaban ( talk) 01:02, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
I am working on including information on recreated real-life districts that show up as neighborhoods in San Andreas in order to further delineate reality and fiction within the article. I have reinstated the short list of San Francisco neighborhoods that have re-emerged as San Fierro districts. I am working on establishing good sources to back up this information, and would appreciate any and all help. This is in the interest of including information that was lost during the merge of the separate articles for each San Andreas city into this article. I am trying to extract only the information that serves to balance out any in-universe perspective in this article. Eganio Talk 01:01, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

This article is pretty lengthy for a fictional city... is that necessary? I mean, the only problem I run into is that I find myself reading the entire thing, but I'm not getting any encyclopedic knowledge. I can't impress people with this information. I understand, decreasing the length at this point would be counterproductive, but the point I'm making is that its too much. The article on Long Beach Island, an actual location, is much shorter. Granted, I'm probably making this point to the wrong people. Nonetheless, I'd love to hear opinions... - tbone ( talk) 20:43, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
