West Side
What it’s like to live in West Side
Cultural diversity energizes West Side, where Newark's western neighborhood houses one of New Jersey's most international communities. Most rentals offer more affordable alternatives to downtown options while maintaining reasonable commuting possibilities via multiple bus routes creating car-optional living unusual for typically automobile-dependent New Jersey communities outside transit-oriented development zones. Though some commercial corridors show varied investment levels, strategic positioning between downtown Newark employment and western suburbs creates ideal convenience for households seeking both urban accessibility and housing affordability increasingly difficult to achieve simultaneously in New Jersey's competitive market experiencing rapid appreciation in previously affordable districts now commanding premium pricing despite minimal improvements beyond location-based considerations rather than genuine quality enhancements justifying increased costs beyond inflation-adjusted calculations.
