Blaine County in San Andreas — Blaine County in southern San Andreas

Blaine County is a county in southern San Andreas, featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. It is bordered by Los Santos County to the south and Paleto County to the northwest. Blaine County's characteristics include an open desert region, as well as thick forests with large mountains. Blaine County is the single largest rural area in the GTA Series. Blaine County contains the towns of Sandy Shores, Grapeseed and Paleto Bay, as well as several other smaller settlements. The county's border is the Route 68, which divides Blaine Country from Los Santos County in the south. Even though being a separate county, it is also patrolled by the Los Santos County Sheriff Department as Sheriff Cruisers can be seen patrolling the highways.

Influence

Blaine County is an amalgamation of several Southern Californian counties adjacent to Los Angeles and the Salton Sea. For example the eastern desert and more rural areas near the Alamo Sea appear to most closely resemble western Imperial and Riverside counties whereas the western and more northerly areas such as North Chumash and Paleto draw inspiration from south western Ventura County, and many of the northernmost and southernmost areas such as Paleto Forest and Bolingbroke Penitentiary, draw inspiration from southern San Bernardino County. The area is also very mountainous compared to the adjacent Los Santos County.

Trivia

There is a county in the US State of Idaho also called Blaine County.
Some radio stations based in Los Santos (such as West Coast Talk Radio) will fade out into static and switch over to a Blaine County based radio station when the player crosses the county line.
Despite being an independent county, Blaine County is still patrolled by the LSSD which logicaly, should only operate in Los Santos County.
The town of Harmony is split in half between Los Santos County and Blaine County, since Route 68 acts as the boundary between the two counties.
