no one has said one word of hillside and i lived there and it is truly a safe place because I travel all hours of the night to include to ironbound, paterson, carlstad, and I must say newark. newark is the largest city in new jersey and its history as a port town in down played. If you need to live at the airport hillside is only 5 minutes and you do not have to worry about getting mugged or car jacked. no gangs are trolling the areas. police present is great. Good luck.

"Nice area" and "airport" are oxymorons. For years redlining has put all the poor neighborhoods near airports.

Police presence is indeed good, but Hillside definitely has gangs (albeit not a screaming amount)
