Newark is the largest city in New Jersey, with a population of 304,960, and considered part of the broader New York metropolitan area.

This culturally diverse city, a 20-minute train ride from New York City, has its own unique identity. You’ll find plenty of cultural attractions, entertainment and dining options, and other amenities to keep you fulfilled.
How much do nursing professionals make in Newark? Here is a breakdown of the average annual salaries for nursing professionals in Newark and throughout the New York-Newark-Jersey City metropolitan area:
Where can you get more information about New Jersey’s nursing license requirements? The New Jersey Board of Nursing provides up-to-date nursing license information. Take a look at our three-step guide for NJ nurse license renewals if yours is about to expire.
Important Information AboutNursing Jobs in Newark, NJ
Given the dense population of the broader region that includes Newark, city residents can choose from a multitude of career opportunities without having to travel too far. However, keep in mind that New York is not a nursing compact state, which means your New Jersey nursing license doesn’t allow you to practice in New York State. Still, there are plenty of nursing jobs in the Garden State.
Newark, NJ, residents skew a bit younger than the U.S. average, with a median age of 34.7. The city’s racially diverse population is 48.3% Black, 36.4% Hispanic or Latino, 10.7% White, and 1.7% Asian. Spanish and Portuguese are the most commonly spoken non-English languages in Newark, while Haitian Creole is also widely spoken there. Nursing professionals who speak multiple languages should highlight this on their resume.
You should have no trouble finding nursing jobs in Newark, NJ, that meet your qualifications and needs, including full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, and per diem jobs across a wide range of specialties. Some of the more popular nursing roles include:
One of the largest healthcare facilities in the region is Rutgers Health, which consists of 1,300 healthcare providers across multiple facilities throughout New Jersey. As the primary teaching hospital of Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, University Hospital brings together physicians, specialists, nurses, and students to provide world-class clinical care. Near the main hospital are Rutgers Health’s specialty centers, which include its Ambulatory Care Center, Behavioral Health Sciences Center, and Cancer Center to name a few.
Additional acute care facilities in the Newark area include:
There are also several healthcare clinics that serve uninsured and underprivileged individuals, including the Newark Community Health Centers organization. NCHC operates three clinics in Newark, along with three others in nearby cities. These clinics provide primary care services, pediatric care, a dental program, women’s health, and related services. There are also plenty of highly rated nursing homes in the area, if you’re looking for post-acute nursing jobs in Newark, NJ.
The average one-way commute for Newark residents is 35.5 minutes, which is higher than the U.S. average of 26.4 minutes, although this takes into account the large number of Newark commuters who work in New York City. While a little more than half of Newark commuters drive alone to work in their cars, 11.2% carpool and 26.3% take advantage of the region’s extensive mass transit networks.
Need help caring for your children or pets while you’re away working? You’ll find plenty of childcare options and pet-care providers in Newark and throughout the region.
Living in Newark, NJ
No matter what you’re into, there’s something for everyone in Newark and, of course, nearby New York City. Highlights include the Ironbound neighborhood, dubbed “Little Portugal,” known for its fantastic restaurants, and several large-capacity entertainment venues that regularly host big-name performers. Newark is also a thriving academic city, boasting roughly 60,000 students at Rutgers University, Seton Hall Law School, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and Essex Community College.
Despite its dense urban environs, Newark is surprisingly close to several pristine wilderness and open space areas where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. For example, the 2,000-acre South Mountain Reservation in South Orange — which has hiking trails, a fishing pond, and even a zoo — is a short train ride from Newark. If you really want to get away, the Great Swamp National Park is just a 35-minute drive and has miles and miles of hiking trails.
As with much of the surrounding region, Newark is hot and humid throughout the summer (with highs in the mid-80s to mid-90s) and can get cold and snowy in the winter. The best weather tends to stretch from early August to late September.
The cost of living in Newark is 35% higher than the national average and 12.7% higher than the state average, but it’s still more affordable than New York City. The average two-bedroom rental in Newark is $1,390 per month, making it cheaper than both the national and state averages.
