People of Leonida
World evidence
Vice City is GTA VI’s neon-lit metropolitan center and the best-documented part of Leonida, shown across beaches, downtown streets, nightlife, ports, neighborhoods, and social-media-style footage.
02The Leonida Keys are an island chain of bridges, waterways, marinas, homes, and smuggling routes where Rockstar places Jason, Brian, and Cal before the wider story expands.
03Grassrivers is Leonida’s wetland region, an expanse of shallow water, sawgrass, wildlife, airboats, and isolated activity beyond the state’s cities.
04Port Gellhorn is a worn west-coast destination whose official imagery emphasizes motels, roadside commerce, coastal recreation, and an economy that has seen better decades.
05Ambrosia is an industrial Leonida community where heavy industry, local identity, and surrounding rural terrain meet.
06Mount Kalaga National Park expands Leonida beyond beaches and wetlands into wooded high country, trails, rivers, outdoor recreation, and remote communities.
