Vice City
The sun-soaked capital of glamour, hustle and greed — a modern Miami with Art Deco beaches, Little Cuba bakeries, and one of the busiest cruise ports in the world.
Real-world inspiration: Miami, Florida. Official screenshot, Rockstar Games.
Vice City is the metropolitan heart of Leonida and the most detailed city Rockstar has shown for Grand Theft Auto VI. Official copy and screenshots point to a dense coastal grid: pastel hotels and white sand in Ocean Beach, nightlife that runs until morning, and neighborhoods with their own street economies.
Rockstar has said Vice City alone is about twice the size of Los Santos. The jump is not only footprint. The Extended Look used satellite-style imagery on the in-game map, and the footage treats the city as a place you live in between jobs — outfits, fridges, TV channels, dogs — not only a mission hub.
Confirmed flavor so far includes Ocean Beach / Vice Beach, a working port, and a nightlife strip that still reads as Vice City even when the camera is not on a heist.
The real Leonida behind Vice City
Vice-Dale County. Miami and Miami Beach, Florida — Art Deco beachfront, Little Havana, a downtown financial core and one of the busiest cruise ports in the world.

Region overview and the 'twice Los Santos' line are from Rockstar's official GTA VI site and the Extended Look. District, landmark and transit names are community mapping from trailers, screenshots and the 2022 build leak, so treat the granular list as well-sourced fan work rather than a Rockstar checklist.
