In all renditions, Liberty City is primarily depicted as a large city with a sizable population (4 million in the Grand Theft Auto III rendition, 8 million in GTA IV), featuring a complete transportation infrastructure of roads and railways, and is located on a geographical configuration of shorelines and islands, similar to that of New York City. The city has been described as one suffering from crime and corruption, with the presence of organized crime, feuding street gangs, petty criminals, and rampant misconduct among city officials and law enforcement. Parts of Liberty City have also suffered major damage and loss from bombings, which are depicted as being orchestrated by local criminals. Some of these damages, however, have been repaired or resulted in complete redevelopment of an entire area. | In all renditions, Liberty City is primarily depicted as a large city with a sizable population (4 million in the Grand Theft Auto III rendition, 8 million in GTA IV), featuring a complete transportation infrastructure of roads and railways, and is located on a geographical configuration of shorelines and islands, similar to that of New York City.

It should be noted that in Grand Theft Auto: IV, the "Liberty City" is only a section of the entire state that shares the same name. Similar to how New York CITY is differentiated from New York STATE, because of the fact they are both named New York. As seen on every license plate in the game the words "Liberty City State" are displayed below the license code "LIBERTY CITY". Because of this, it is believed that the Liberty City shown in GTA IV and previous GTA games allow Liberty City, the city, as a playable area, and not the entire state of Liberty | It should be noted that in Grand Theft Auto: IV, the "Liberty City" is only a section of the entire state that shares the same name.
