A dirty, burned out city in Northern New Jersey. Located slightly Northwest of Newark. Governed by a corrupt mayor with a corrupt police force. Has one of the highest crime rates in country.

Irvington was middle-class suburb prior to the 1980s. It is now one of the worst examples of urban decay in the United States.
Irvington is now more dangerous than Newark.

Jul 15 Word of the Day
The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).

Also known as β€œplanetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine β€œreflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”

There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.
Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.

An city in Northern New Jersey where more than half of the houses are boarded up or burned down. Crime is so out of control that the police use military equipment to keep order.

a town in New Jersey with a bit over 50,000 people west of Newark. Its crime is dramatically high and has once been reffered to as "the murder capitol of the country". The town used to be prodominately White before the mid 70s to early 80s when the the black population scooted in bringing the black population to over 80% and bringing the crime up with it. If Irvington had a higher population, the city would probably be recorder as the most dangerous city in the country numorous times.

PS. When driving around the city of Irvington, NJ you will come across signs saying "prevent our city shootings".
