Spoiler Warning: Plot details, ending details, or both are in the text which follows.

Market is the place where Carl starts the C.R.A.S.H. missions in Los Santos: Burning Desire and Gray Imports. He meets the corrupt cops Frank Tenpenny and Eddie Pulaski at Jim's Sticky Ring, which is the starting place for both missions. The district is again briefly featured during the mission Management Issues, where CJ kidnaps and later kills Madd Dogg's manager, Alan Crawford, after picking him up at the Cathay Theater.

Later in the game, Tenpenny and Pulaski order CJ to follow a reporter from Cranberry Station in San Fierro to Market Station in Los Santos. Carl boards a taxi near the station and follows the reporter, who will meet a journalist at Yacht Harbor in Santa Maria Beach. Once they meet, Carl assassinates both the journalist and the reporter with a sniper rifle. After Carl's return to Los Santos, him and Madd Dogg chase OG Loc driving a kart through the western area of the city during the mission Cut Throat Business. The chase ends when Jeffrey attempts to hide into the Blastin' Fools Records headquarters in Market.

The land races Freeway and Vinewood also start in the Market district.
