Listen Newark is not the greatest city. It’s got a lot of culture and is suuuuper easy to go to the station and be in NYC within 30 mins. But be aware that Newark is mostly known as ghetto. There are nicer parts but overall not the nicest place. I have friends who live there for the same reasons you are citing, they have had their wheels stolen. Packages stolen. One friend told me she’s used to sleeping through gun shots.
Not trying to shit on Newark but there’s a reason it’s cost of living is low…because it’s hella ghetto.
