Reply to comment by OhMySultan in Moving to Newark. Please Help me find $1500 or under apartments in a safe location by redditfindsaway

I am not from the area so I don't really know what places are safe and considered decent. Everyone has nice pictures but they can be deceiving

You can get a job at Rutgers University Hospital but cant use google? Remind me to not go to that hospital

I’m not sure where you’re moving from but if possible it’s always recommended to go see a place in person before putting money down.

That being said if you can’t, anywhere in the north ward or Ironbound is your best bet if you’re worried about safety. Downtown isn’t too bad either but shit happens once in a while.

I can send you pictures of the neighborhood around Addison when I get a chance if need be. But it’s genuinely a safe place as far as Newark goes. Which is to say, things can still happen, but you don’t need to be as worried as you would be living in the South Ward.

Thank you so much this was very helpful and useful to know I am probably going to circle on addison.

It seems to be well-connected to public transport and seems to be good bang for the buck. I'll try to get one in the upper floors
