Answer 1 :
Umm yeah the words "Newark" and "safe" should not be used in the same sentence. Camden, Trenton and Newark all made the top 25 Most Dangerous Cities list: http://www.morganquitno.com/cit07pop.htm
Answer 2 :
Well I live in New Jersey. Newark I'm not so sure about but South Orange is a nice little town. Yeah you can take the NJ Transit to NYC. What I suggest (for both NY and NJ is to just research the area on the internet). NYC is so huge. Just walk out of the subway and there's stuff to do. Hey thats kinda cool I know a kid from Louisville, KY. We go to the same college!
Answer 3 :
I agree with the first guy. I hope this job pays well. Please be careful, always have something you could use for protection and a cell phone. Study local street maps to become familiar with your surroundings

Answer 1 :
The main district where most of the big companies are located isn't too bad, but don't wander far.
Answer 2 :
I worked in Elizabeth, NJ for almost 3 years. When I started I was nervous about the area, but after a short time I realized that it's actually not so bad. I was actually looking at houses in Newark until I was laid off. There are good and bad areas all over. Newark is the same. Any of the business districts will be fine. If I was you I'd take a test commute there a couple times. Go once during morning rush and once after the afternoon rush to check out the area, see who's around, etc. I really doubt you'd have a problem, but if you're not comfortable you won't get much out of your internship

I'd call and ask Human Resources directly before you even send your paperwork in to them. Since you work for Fed Ex, this is the easiest and best way to ensure you are getting the correct information
