Top neighborhoods in Newark

  • Weequahic

    What it’s like to live in Weequahic

    Historic diversity defines Weequahic, where Newark's southern neighborhood showcases distinctive architecture surrounding the park designed by Olmsted Brothers of Central Park fame. Most rentals feature unique details from hardwood floors to built-in bookcases reflecting craftsmanship from earlier eras, while the compact neighborhood design enables community connections unusual for typically fragmented urban districts. Though some blocks show varied investment levels, strategic positioning near both highways and Newark Airport creates ideal convenience for commuters seeking affordable housing with character beyond newer cookie-cutter developments increasingly dominating urban expansion areas with limited architectural distinction despite premium pricing based purely on construction date rather than genuine quality considerations. The neighborhood's proximity to Weequahic Park provides recreational opportunities unusual for urban environments, creating natural beauty beyond built environments increasingly important for quality-of-life calculations.
