Living Here

A Multicultural Mecca with Metropolitan Appeal

Like many cities across America, Newark was settled by waves of immigrants through the years and now enjoys a rich cultural legacy. Today multiple languages are still heard – Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Polish and many others. While affordable, authentic neighborhoods thrive throughout the city’s five wards, Newark is also cosmopolitan with a variety of upscale restaurants and eateries, shopping, concerts, sporting events and festivals.
