Willowfield

Willowfield is a district in southeastern Los Santos, San Andreas. The districts of Idlewood, Ganton and East Beach are located to the north, while the Los Santos International Airport and Ocean Docks are situated to the south. The district of El Corona can be found to the west of Willowfield, and Playa del Seville is located to the east.

Character
Willowfield is a well-known stronghold for the Ballas gang, particularly the Rollin Heights Ballas set. The history of the area is unknown, although it is likely that the Grove Street Families (specifically the Seville Boulevard Families set) controlled the area at one point, as Emmet, a Seville gang member, lives in Willowfield. The area is also very wide, and can be described as a low-income district with a high crime rate, along with run-down single-storey houses and housing projects. The area has a moderately high Hispanic and Latino population, along with some Caucasian and African-American people. The neighborhood also has numerous businesses, including a Cluckin' Bell restaurant. Eastern Willowfield is primarily designated for industries, as there are many industrial structures and places there such as railroad tracks and warehouses.

Influence
Willowfield is based on Wilmington but takes its name from the census-designated place of Willowbrook in Los Angeles County, California. However, the Willowfield Homes projects are based on Nickerson Gardens in Watts.

Events of GTA San Andreas
The Rollin' Heights Ballas, a subset of the Ballas, use Willowfield as a base from which to attack both Ganton and Playa del Seville, both Grove Street Families territory. Carl Johnson enters Willowfield a few times during the storyline; some instances are for weapons, to modify low riders, and to perform drive-by shootings on Ballas gang members. Depending on the player's actions, Willowfield can be captured and claimed as a territory of the Grove Street Families.
