Don't know your budget but the parts of Newark that people consider "the safest" like Downtown, Ironbound and Forest Hill are also going to be the most expensive.

yeah see thats what i wanna know if i went to the affordable cheapest part of newark i know in certain peoples eyes it may not best the safest but im no geek on the street. i just want to know what am i dealing with. should i be equipped ready to go at all times, or is that not needed cause people aint doing that no more and i just need common sense.

Like if i at 2 am want to go grab some milk, would it be suicide going out a night to go to the store or its not that crazy and is like every other city where you just need to mind your surroundings. or if i got a ps5 or some expensive item would i FOR SURE be a target or for the most part are people minding they business unless i came across a theif.

again newark could look like crap and have trash and paper everywhere, IDGAF, i just care about the crime. like How active is it. cause im seeing decent prices but theres always a catch. my range for rent is 1200- 1500... AND FOR NOW WHEN I GET MY MONEY UP ILL UPGRADE OR MOVE IDK.

Hell, I'd come outside and smack you if you were doing that outside my house at 2am.

>would that be like a batsignal for the wolves

Wouldn't that be a wolf signal?

Also, not much wildlife in Newark. Definitely don't need to worry about being savaged by wolves.

Stray cats however...
