Los Santos is calling!
Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out in Los Santos, understanding the lay of the land is crucial for navigating the sprawling world of Grand Theft Auto 5.
The GTA 5 map on this page will show you all the various regions, landmarks, collectibles, items, events, buildings, and other hidden gems scattered across the game's massive map. From the glitz and glamour of Vinewood to the rugged wilderness of Blaine County, our map will help you explore every nook and cranny of Los Santos.
GTA 5's map is based on Southern California in the United States and is known in the game as the state of San Andreas. The actual playable part of the map, seen below, is the southern part of San Andreas. The city of Los Santos comprises the southern end of the map and is based on the real-life city of Los Angeles.
Blaine County is the name of the rural area at the north of the map with Los Santos County covering the lower two thirds.
The map in Grand Theft Auto 5 is larger than any other map in the entire Grand Theft Auto series, including GTA San Andreas. In fact, it is bigger than any map that Rockstar Games has ever made except for the map in their most recent game, Red Dead Redemption 2.
The GTA 5 map is 48.15km2. The map in GTA San Andreas is 31.55km2, GTA 4 is 8.06km2, GTA Vice City is 5.62km2, and GTA 3 is 4.38km2.
Matt's obsession with the Grand Theft Auto series began in 2001 when he rented GTA III from his local video store. He has played through every GTA release since.
Anticipating the launch craziness around GTA 5 in 2012, Matt created GTA5Cheats.com (now GTA BOOM) to report the latest news and rumors.
As owner and developer, Matt continues improving GTA BOOM daily to build the ultimate resource for GTA fans. When he's not editing content or enhancing the site's functionality, you'll find Matt updating the vast game guide library together with fellow staff member Hassan Sajid.
Driven by his lifelong GTA fandom, Matt created the platform he wished existed — one central hub providing everything GTA enthusiasts could want or need.
