West of the park into Orange is fine but east of the park south of 280 is abit rough. The Northern part of East Orange or north park ave is also fine. Orange for the most is fine just be aware that parts of the city are prone flooding near NJT tracks , the river isn't marked but during violent thunderstorms or an ida level of heavy rain over a period of a day those areas tend to get flooded badly. This also continues down into South Orange and Maplewood...

That's the Rahway River East Branch. It flows South on its way to Millburn where it meets the West Branch Rahway coming down South Mountain reservation to form the greater Rahway River.

Also, the Elizabeth river begins in Newark at the old Vailsburg / Irvington boundary at West End ave.
