Overview

Richman is one of Los Santos’s most exclusive neighbourhoods: a quiet, heavily landscaped district of mansions, private grounds, prestigious institutions and wealthy residents who rarely need to mix with the rest of the city. It occupies the north-western part of Los Santos and is much larger than the mansion-lined streets around the Richman Mansion itself. The district includes the Los Santos Golf Club, the University of San Andreas, Los Santos, The Richman Hotel and a broad belt of private homes.

Richman is deliberately less eventful than districts such as Vinewood, Strawberry or La Mesa. Its importance comes from optional activities, environmental storytelling and the contrast between its protected wealth and the rest of Los Santos. It is also a useful location for several later GTA Online missions, particularly those involving the Richman Mansion and its owner, Ben Brooks.
