Liberty City

A predominantly African-American inner-city neighborhood in Miami, Florida, between Hialeah and Little Haiti in the armpit of Interstate 95. It is universally known as one of the worst areas of Miami for crime and urban decay, and so it is often used to refer to black slums in general, even by non-natives such as Chris Rock. The other major black ghetto in Miami is Overtown.

A fictional Liberty City is also the setting for the first three Grand Theft Auto games: the name may have been inspired by Miami's little ghetto (the other half of Miami, of course, became Vice City).
