Review of Newark, New Jersey


The New Newark
Star Rating - 6/27/2006
I'm very sad to hear the bad comments on this site about Newark
I grew up in Newark and my family still lives and work in Newark, and the surrounding areas. My family and I have been looking for a house in Newark for the last several months, we now live in NYC.
I would love to move back to Newark, I believe that it is a great place to live and work! We believe that the great leadership of Mr. Cory Booker will overcome any past negativity and we are here to help in the fight.
We see the promise in the new ' Newark' and we believe in the great mayor who will take office this week.Yes, Newark has seen some hard times and there are some who will fight to keep Newark unsafe and sell drugs.
Unlike others who choose to bad mouth this great city we choose to fight and restore this great city to the glory it once was and will be again.
We are the doctors, police, lawyers, contractors and well educated children who came right out of the streets of Newark.
We are the ones who have 'made it' the successful ones who can afford to live where ever we want, we choose to live in Newark.
We are the ones who will help Mr. Cory Booker fight to take back the streets of Newark. To all who bad mouth Newark I say, remember Harlem
Harlem was the same way 10 years ago and now you cannot find a one bedroom for rent under $1800. a month.
Brownstones are selling in Harlem for 1,000,000. plus
sinvite you to join me,stop complaining and take a stand.
Join in the 'Renaissance' of the new Newark
Come back to Newark and purchase all the houses that need repair, help to change the lives of the people of Newark
Lets make Newark a place to be ,safe in,proud of and a future for our kids.
Lets restore Newark to its old glory!
And thank you for caring Mayor Booker, we stand with you !
