Understand

Get in

Newark is a transportation mecca and is very easy to get into and out of.

By plane

Newark International Airport (EWR) is about 5 miles south of downtown. It is a hub for Continental Airlines as well as several other carriers. It is usually faster and easier to get from Newark Airport to Manhattan and New Jersey destinations than other New York area airports. If you do not have a car, take the bus or monorail (running between terminals and to connections to NJ Transit and Amtrak) to your destination.

By train

Newark Penn Station (not to be confused with New York Penn Station) is located just a few blocks from the heart of downtown Newark. It is served by Amtrak (http://www.amtrak.com) and New Jersey Transit (http://www.njtransit.com), with easy connections to New York, Philadelphia, Trenton, and points West. It's a beautiful old McKim Mead & White building and worth visiting just on its own. Newark Broad Street Station is also served by NJ Transit.

By car

Route 23 (McCarter Highway) runs North-South along the railroad tracks a few blocks east of downtown. I-78 skirts the south edge of town and I-280 cuts across the North. Route 1/9 comes across the Pulaski Skyway from Jersey City and Manhattan (via the Holland Tunnel). Take the Raymond Ave exit and drive along the Passaic River into downtown.

By bus

Newark Penn Station is also the city's bus terminal and is served by NJ Transit buses, as well as Greyhound and others.

Stay safe

Newark is not unsafe as long as you are careful. It is the car-theft capital of the US so if you bring your vehicle be sure to take necessary precautions. Downtown Newark is crowded and very safe during the day. It empties out at night and may seem creepy but as long as you stay in well lit open areas you will be fine. The Ironbound district is pretty bumpin on nights and weekends and is probably the safest part of the city. The West and North Wards have heavier crime rates and it pays to be more guarded in those areas.
