A community heavily influenced by its history, this city located in New Castle county can trace back its roots to the early 1700s when Scots-Irish and Welsh settlers built a small community known as Newark. Located on the routes of old Indian and fur trader's paths, Newark received its city charter from the King of England in 1758.

Heavily influenced by the creation of schools in the eighteenth and nineteenth century, Newark can be described as a college town.
