Ambrosia County
County AM · Ambrosia
Ambrosia County is a county in central Leonida due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI, first identified on a road sign for its Sheriff's Office in an official screenshot of the city of Ambrosia. The county contains Lake Leonida and is likely modeled on Hendry County, Florida, home of Clewiston, the basis for Ambrosia itself, possibly blended with other counties surrounding Lake Okeechobee.
County Sheriff’s Jurisdiction
The Ambrosia County Sheriff is the named law-enforcement agency for the county. Beyond the Sheriff’s Office reference, no Grand Theft Auto VI material identifies the agency’s personnel, vehicles, uniforms, equipment, stations, missions, or policing activities. No trailer timestamp or gameplay sequence is specified for Ambrosia County.
Ambrosia is the only city listed within the county. Lake Leonida is also within its boundaries, although no further locations, roads, districts, businesses, or settlements are named.
Florida County Influences
Ambrosia County is considered most likely to draw from Hendry County, Florida. That comparison centres on Clewiston, Hendry County’s largest city, which provided the basis for Ambrosia. The county’s possible real-world references extend beyond Hendry County to Glades County and Highlands County, both of which lie around Lake Okeechobee.
Its name may also allude to Clewiston’s sugar industry. “Ambrosia” is a term for the food of the gods, making the name a possible thematic reference rather than a confirmed statement of the county’s economy. Glades and Highlands are presented as additional influences, not as confirmed one-for-one counterparts.

What Ambrosia County is on the GTA 6 map
Ambrosia County is Leonida’s interior — inland, agricultural, and built around Lake Leonida rather than the coast. Its seat, the town of Ambrosia, is a company town in the shadow of an enormous sugar refinery, with blue-collar streets and biker crews filling the space the industry left behind.
This is the sugar belt: flat cane country standing in for the farming communities around Lake Okeechobee. Ambrosia sits right on the lake, and it’s the grittier, working-class heart of the map — a deliberate contrast to Vice City’s shine.
County seat: Ambrosia. Real-world resemblance: the Lake Okeechobee sugar belt (Glades / Hendry County country) — fan mapping, not officially confirmed by Rockstar.
