Newark, NJ apartments for rent

On game days, the Jersey Devils and their rowdy fans take over the local bars, but down at the Newark Symphony Hall you’ll find a spirit-stirring gospel choir singing the word. Industrial blight is counterbalanced with blooming Cherry Blossoms, and high crime rates are met with higher education, often in the schools of law and medicine.

This unique and somewhat-schizo culture has a lasting effect on local Newarkians, and you’ll come to recognize that Newark attitude in some of the city’s most famous residents, such as Jason Alexander, Joe Pesci, Jerry Lewis, Whitney Houston, Queen Latifah, Ice-T and Redman.

Newark isn’t just famous for its attitude, though. There are several giant festivals and parades held each year. There is the Cherry Blossom Festival in April, the Lincoln Park Music Festival in July, the Newark Black Film Festival each summer, and the biennial Dodge Poetry Festival in October. In June, the Ironbound District really gets hot with the Portugal Day Festival, where live music, parades and wild celebrations rain down on the neighborhood. The festivities are so incredible. They are often broadcast to stations across New Jersey, Portugal and South America.
