    "This area is at the heart of 4 Colleges/Universities (Rutgers, UMDNJ, NJIT, & Berkley College). Very diverse community because of the college kids and faculty living in the area. Patrolled by Newark's police department, Rutger's Police Department & NJIT police department at the same time 24/7. One block away from train station to NY and Newark path (Commute to NYC is about 15 min!) and 15 min drive to Newark International Airport. In the middle of the historic district surrounded by brownstone houses. Targeted by city officials, state planners, and national non-profits for urban renewal. Mayor Hospital (Saint Michale's) 2 blocks away. Blue ribbon school around the corner. Newark's Museum and public library 3 blocks away. Park with summer farm market at walking distance.Area is included in the Downtown district plans so it is reduced property tax and reduce commerce/sales tax. Community involvement is a plus in this area with a very active Neighborhood association with a focus on community development and historical preservation."
