The crime in this area has decreased over the years, but there still is crime. However, the prevalence of crimes and visibility of police is close to none. I see police but when they are needed it takes them hours to come to the scene of the crime. I am concerned when it comes to the police helping prevent crimes or helping the community, its as if they don't want to.

I wish there weren't a lot of abandoned houses.

If you were interested in being a doctor, you could find a job at the nearby hospital, but other than that there are little to no actual good jobs. There seems to be in my area a cashier at Pathmark or a cashier at a fast food place, other than that even the local teachers are losing their jobs because of the numerous budget cuts to the school system that the Newark schools are suffering from.

Where I live is next to the edge of the road so we mostly never get weather problems.
