Largest city in NJ. Located in North Jersey, it has a suprisingly large and clean airport. Newark started out as a very industrial city and used to have a higher population. Now Newark is what you would call ghetto, not as bad Camden but still a high crime rate. I wish they would clean it up and stop the gang violence cause New Jersey is in need of a thriving metropolis.
I love NJ but we should clean up Newark,Trenton, and Camden.

Largest city in New Jersey. Not as shitty as everyone thinks it is. Many of the people need to control their guns though. Downtown as a lot a buildings and soon will have the new Newark Arena for the Devils NHL Team. Newark has four colleges. NJIT, Rutgers, Essex County College, and UMDNJ. Also has one of the busiest airports in the world, and its own little subway system.

3rd oldest city in the U.S. behind Boston and New York City. The butt of many jokes nationwide and on Television shows, because many writers and comedians are orginally from there. Pronounced "Noork" by residents. Historically, a great city second only to New York, but in the last one-hundred years experienced a sharp decline, due to poor municipal planning and the 1967 riots, from which it has never recovered. See white flight and urban blight. It is broken into five distinctive wards, the central ward, the north ward, the south ward,see Weequahic, east ward see ironbound and the west ward, see vailsburg.
The central ward and south wards are home to absolutely nothing.
The north ward is home to many great Italian restaurants and Branch Brook park, designed by Fredrick Law Olmstead, see New York's Central Park.
The east ward is home to many Portugese and Brazilian residents and many great Portugese restaurants often right next to each other.
The west ward is the most suburban, marred by South Orange Avenue and it's open air drug market.
Newark is the sad victim of New Jersey's odd tribalism and suburbanites' strange belief that each suburb is better than the other, especially Newark. Which has made investors afraid to invest in the city and invest in second rate New Jersey cities such as Jersey City and Hoboken, and financial boondoggles such as the Meadowland's Xanadu (which is located in a swamp). Most people that pass through Newark are mildly surprised that it is not as bad as they thought or had heard. An unnatural fear and many urban legends about the city prevail. New Jerseyans often shun any major project planned in Newark such as, the NJPAC and Devil's Arena, citing that no one will attend events there, but are usually proven wrong when attendance exceeds expecation and would rather projects be in surrounding areas such as Harrison, Hoboken or Jersey City, which to people not from New Jersey are totally indistinguishable. Often people think they are still in Newark when they visit surrounding areas because they ARE indistinguishable.
A possible cultural center of New Jersey, but somehow, not. Probably because New Jerseyans believe that everything should be spread out throughout New Jersey, contributing to horrible, backed up traffic conditions.
Suburban girl: I was going to Harrison and I took a wrong turn, I ended up in Newark! I locked my doors, I was so scared!
Suburban girl2: Oh my God! What happend?
Suburban girl: Nothing! But, I got out of there really fast!
Example 2:
Suburbanite: So where are you from?
Newarker: I'm from Newark.
Suburbanite: *after a long pause* You're from the Ironbound right?

Lots and LOTS of guns! Over 100 murders every single year which is more than NYC, Chicago, Miami, and some years, even more than detroit!
But, that's only if you live in the bad areas. There are some nice areas, where lots of crime doesn't go on. Newark is a fun city, lots of things to do and lots of nightlife.
Although if you end up in East Newark at night, lock your doors and roll up your windows, oh, and bring a gun.
Person 1: I'm from Newark
Person 2: HOLY SHIT! How many times have you been shot??
Person 1: None, I live in evergrove street south Newark.
person 2: I see...

Home of gangstas, pimps, sluts, hoes, jump-offs and any other socially deviant group. A place where even the humble carry a burner. A shitty city but at the same time rich with black culture and black pride. Only problem is it's drug infested and poverty-stricken. So the only option is to keep on clockin' ya dig.
Brick city be gettin' it poppin for real. Yea, Newark is a hot ass town just go there with the burner.
