Weighing against [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|its later counterpart]], the city's geography and alignment of districts in the game are much more reminiscent of New York City, featuring two major mainlands with a Manhattan-like central island (which contains a large park at the center, a reference to Central Park), and several smaller islands along a river of the city, with the mainlands and islands connected primarily by road bridges. Neighboring New Jersey and surrounding boroughs in New York City are also spoofed, the former described as being in [[New Guernsey|a separate state]] of its own (similar to [[Alderney]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]). | Weighing against [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|its later counterpart]], the city's geography and alignment of districts in the game are much more reminiscent of New York City, featuring two major mainlands with a Manhattan-like central island (which contains a large park at the center, a reference to Central Park), and several smaller islands along a river of the city, with the mainlands and islands connected primarily by road bridges.

Liberty City has the largest number of districts among the three in the game, with a total of 20. The districts are evidently based on real life areas in New York City and New Jersey, while their names are wordplays of those from their real life counterparts. | Liberty City has the largest number of districts among the three in the game, with a total of 20.
