Thanks. I'll keep your advice in mind. I'm from a small town in Saskatchewan, and there is no crime here unless you count the guy who does donuts in the empty parking lots. People here literally leave their doors unlocked and everyone knows each other. So just trying to prepare for what comes my way. And I've never watched the Sopranos, I've heard of it but I thought that the show was about singers or something.

Haha its about Mafia in NJ. Greatest TV show!

Yeah Newark is gonna be a totally new experience for you but it's not actually that big. There are dodgy places and some people will defo look dodgy to you but nobody will bother you during the day. Print a map of the areas where you will be and research it online. Best ways to get and out. also, I always see cops everywhere when I am there.

Good to know. I'll keep that in mind. I'll ask around the neighborhood which areas to stay away from. And I'll give the show a shot; maybe it will help me get to know NJ better.
