As New Jersey's premier city, Newark possesses a strong government presence. Numerous
state and federal agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United
States Citizenship and Immigration Services, maintain offices here. In addition,
New Jersey's United States senators, several congressional representatives and U.S.
District Court are located in Newark. Newark is also the Essex County Seat and site
of the Essex County Courthouse, the busiest in the state. Operating from the
golden-domed City Hall, an extensive array of city agencies serves the many needs
of Newark's large population.
