[[Bohan]] is the most deprived of the five boroughs in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]. It mainly consists of run-down housing projects and derelict squalor housing. [[South Bohan]] and [[Fortside]] are the best examples of this type of location. Whilst there is often evidence of gentrification in other deprived districts across [[Liberty City in GTA IV|Liberty City]] there is very little evidence of it in these neighborhoods. There is a strong gang presence in these two districts, with South Bohan and Fortside being Spanish Lords' primary turf. | [[Bohan]] is the most deprived of the five boroughs in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]].

[[Northern Gardens]] is a slightly less deprived area with considerable green space and a beach in its northern limits. It provides Bohan's Policing and Medical Services. The major function of the neighborhood is its housing of the Northern Gardens Projects which is one of [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]'s largest housing estates. The projects' main complex shows signs of gentrification with the presence of small convenience shops and comparatively modern housing facilities. The police station is directly connected to Northern Gardens Projects by means of a short staircase, presumably to allow for an improved police presence and more effective response to crime. | [[Northern Gardens]] is a slightly less deprived area with considerable green space and a beach in its northern limits.
