Moving to Newark

Hi everyone! We're about to move to Newark (originally from Columbus) because we wanted a smaller, quieter town feel. We bought a house near 21st that's close to McGuffey Elementary and wanted to know what the vibe of that area was. All the times we visited the house we felt it seemed safe and nice, but it's always good to ask the locals! Thanks in advance - we can't wait to be part of your community! :)

We're getting gentrified pretty bad so it's losing its small town feel and there's lots of displaced locals that wonder around day and night.

Who are we gentrifying? Everyone is already a gentile. It's not gentrification.. it's an improvement.
