Review of Newark, New Jersey


Move on
Star Rating - 6/23/2007
This city is a death zone. I would not let a dog walk down the street. Drugs are being sold at every corner you name it they have it. Shooting are way out of control think of it as the old wild west.Stolen cars, trucks and motorcycles use the streets as a drag strip. Police hands are tied up,cant keep up with all of the crime,also understaffed and out of date equipment. The city talking about more lay-offs and higher taxes. Dont visit this city at nights, (days are dangerous enough). Please make sure your insurance is current(LIFE, MEDICAL, DENTAL ETC,). There is nothing positive about this city. Newark should be banished from the rest of world.( Just like the movie escape from NEW YORK).Please stay out and beware. If you reside in NEWARK, PLEASE GET OUT BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. Before your sanity or life are taken away.
