Mission Row

Mission Row, also known colloquially as Little Italy, is a neighborhood in the Downtown district of Los Santos. 
Vince Torelli worked on Mission Row as of late 2022.
== Information ==
The cultural center of the neighborhood contains six blocks of primarily residential apartment buildings, with some shops and restaurants on the bottom levels. East Mission Row contains a police station and some industrial warehouse buildings.
The neighborhood is generally considered to be flanked by Adams Apple Boulevard and South Central Los Santos to the south, Strawberry Avenue and Legion Square to the west, Little Bighorn Avenue and the Los Santos River to the east, and San Andreas Avenue and heavily-Chinese Textile City to the north.
The area on San Andreas Avenue that divides Mission Row from Textile City is sometimes known as NoMiRo, as the de facto neighborhood is a fusion of Italian and Chinese cultures.
Lower Mission Row, particularly in the vicinity of the corner of Vespucci Boulevard and Sinner Street, is known colloquially as Little Italy, due to the high concentration of Italian-American families that live there. In contrast to the formerly majority Italian neighborhood on Clinton Avenue in Vinewood, which was primarily made up of east coast immigrants, a large portion of the Italians in Lower Mission Row have lived in the area for at least a generation or two. However, east coast immigrants still make up a relatively large percentage of the adult Italian population.
Eastern Mission Row, particularly along Little Bighorn Avenue, is historically known for its large concentration of homeless residents. Several shelters have been established in this area.
==Crime==
The crime in Mission Row has historically been dominated by the "Downtown" faction of the Martorano crime family. Since most of the Italians in the neighborhood rest in the lower middle class, or even just above the poverty line, youth indoctrination into the street front of the Martorano family is common.
The mafia has a high street presence on Vespucci Boulevard, with a popular hangout spot for gangsters being the Goldies bar, on the corner of Vespucci Boulevard and Sinner Street.
