Has Rockstar stated that Ambrosia is based on Florida's central agricultural belt (Polk County, Lakeland), or is that community inference?

WHY IT'S OPEN
What Rockstar has and hasn't said
Rockstar describes Ambrosia as the heart of Leonida — an industrial / agricultural town defined by the Allied Crystal sugar refinery and a local biker gang. The Florida central agricultural belt parallel (Polk County / Lakeland area) circulating in coverage and community channels is inference based on visual and tonal cues. As of this entry's creation, no first-party Rockstar / Take-Two source reviewed by this publication names any specific real-world location as the inspiration.
