certain parts of Newark were always better then Others. University Hights, it's always relatively safer then other area's of Newark. The price for this is constant police presence. A city block with cameras on buildings and police patrol, there is at least 3 police officers assigned to keep a city block safe during business hours.

I agree, you would think the city would increase their police force and invest in having better security and safety precautions by now if they ever want to be taking seriously to attract more businesses and new residents.

Industrial tax base going and still shrinking property taxes up and increasing. Who is going to pay for more police. Most of the city is unsafe at night.

Only gentrification can solve Newark's issues. Don't wait for the municipal government of Newark to solve the issues. You'll be waiting for another 100 years.

You can't pay people enough to move into Newark. I judge a city's value by it's nightlife.
