El Corona is a low-income, working-class residential district slightly to the south-east of the city centre of Los Santos in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Surrounding El Corona are the districts of Little Mexico, Verdant Bluffs, Idlewood and Willowfield. Just south is the Los Santos International Airport.

Character

El Corona is the main strong hold for the Varrios Los Aztecas gang, and there are five known residents, Cesar Vialpando, Gal, Hazer, Sunny and Kendl Johnson (who moves to El Corona to live with Cesar Vialpando).

El Corona can be described as a gang-ridden ghetto district with a high crime rate, as evidenced by the high-level gang presence and graffiti. The area primarily contains a large housing project known as the El Corona Village, some stores and businesses and numerous small, single-family houses. El Corona is primarily a Mexican/Hispanic district.

The area's character, appearance, and proximity to LSX and Idlewood seems to resemble Lennox, California. However, the nearby projects resemble the Dana Strand Village housing project in Wilmington along with the rail line over pass with the multi-colored stairs which can be found in Watts.
