Wow been gone for so long. More familiar with the ATL & Chicago over the past 30 years. But this is bringing back memories of names like Stella Wright, Christopher Columbus, Munn Ave, Georgia King village & Seth Boyden. Lots of memories for a 70’s Jersey kid. I can still hear WBLS blasting from the family van as we headed to Cooper’s or Brothers BBQ to get some grub✊🏾
I'm 74 and grew up in Newark. Down neck. This was a tough neighborhood for over 200 years !! Still is but I can walk anywhere at night and nobody will bother you !😂😅 We're all on the lookout for troublemakers and they know it!😂
There's an ice cream truck that stops by Lafayette St school in Newark across the street from my house.Every afternoon 2:15 to 3:00 I hear the annoying "Hello " then annoying music . @!#%@😂😂
I bought my father's headstone at DePoala monuments 3:57. Right where the Dunkin Donuts is was Kielbs bakery back in the 60's and 70's great Danish and the BEST cheesecake.

This was an Italian area. Punks were beat up, not glorified as tough. Tough guys have responsibilities and get up and go to work. Newark was a great city.
This neighborhood has changed with some new buildings, and some gone. Notice the buildings and assisted housing have no graffiti, things are cluttered as they were in the 60's and 70"s but people live in dignity. There was no stigma attached to living in the Village. It was intended to be a place for people to lift themselves. It worked now a new crop of ethnic folks have the same opportunity.
I lived in the north ward from 2004 to 2007. Honestly my only complaint is it's over crowded not like the south ward. Also from my experience those Latino people dont bother you. They are loud lol with the music though.
Where you are is not really the “hood”. I grew up around that area it’s near Bloomfield avenue/bellevile. The hood is closer by the beginning of the video near 280
i have one question have united/states also neighberhoods that are radically AS RAPIDLY changed OF demographis from the former majority something ELSE into majority muslims like some cities in europe-

Damn Newark used to look fucked up with so many abandoned buildings and hundreds of drug addicts roaming the streets. Looks much nicer now.

Yes Andrea immigration illegal and legal is happening so fast and plentiful it’s changing the face of America. I will show many examples of this
Honestly does not look that bad not that much homeless and drug addicts on the streets
