About Our Graticule

The Newark graticule is at 40 N, -74 W. This may be the most populous graticule in the United States, with a population in the neighborhood of 10 million people. It includes almost the entire northern half of New Jersey, the most densely populated state (Census), as well as Staten Island, western sections of Brooklyn and lower Manhattan in New York, and a part of Pennsylvania northeast of Philadelphia. In addition, other than Raritan Bay, there are no large sections of water.

Thanks to Meteorswarm for setting up a Facebook group for this graticule. Meet-ups can be coordinated there, although so far this wiki has been more active.

    • The geohash was in a house in Nutley. Jevanyn made a lolhouse, but no one actually went.
