What it’s like to live in Upper Clinton Hill
Academic proximity defines Upper Clinton Hill, where Newark's central neighborhood offers affordable options near multiple universities. The district sits walking distance to both Rutgers-Newark and New Jersey Institute of Technology while maintaining separate identity from purely campus environments. Though some blocks show varied investment levels, excellent public transportation including multiple bus routes creates car-optional possibilities unusual for neighborhoods at similar price points, while the developing commercial corridors continue adding amenities serving local residents beyond student populations.

What it’s like to live in Fairmount
Cultural preservation defines this enclave surrounding the Newark Museum's 1885 Ballantine House. Renters enjoy quick PATH train access to Manhattan but face persistent plane noise from Newark Liberty's flight paths. Strict historic district guidelines limit exterior modifications to Victorian brownstones.
