Founded in 1693, New Jericho has grown from a simple township into one of New Jersey's largest cities. With a population of 578,000 (2006 census), New Jericho is home to the Jericho Lions and the University of New Jericho Rams, and some of the top entertainment venues on the East Coast.

When the sun goes down, New Jericho wakes up. Virtually every band that steps foot in the United States plays some dates in or around New Jericho and the City's rock clubs have a history of discovering and showcasing new acts.

Locations of note:
James W. Gordon International Airport: anyone wanting to fly into or out of New Jericho is going to have to do it here. Make sure to arrive at least two hours before any international flight.
Bête Noire Psychiatric Hospital: "We're all here because we aren't all there". Home to New Jericho's craziest, which is a surprisingly high number.
Kirby Tower: Many of New Jericho's top businesses have their offices here. The top floors are owned by Leiber & Kurtzberg, New Jericho's top law firm.
Four Freedoms Park: City Hall overlooks one of the few green spaces left in the City.
Alan Parson Projects: Not the best place to live, but when money is tight...
Whitechapel: The slums. In 1890, a vampire known as Gentleman Jack made a killing here. Literally.
Jericho Credit Union Stadium: Home of the New Jericho Lions. Go Lions!
St. Jude College: Better known for being home to the Dr. Joseph Bell Library and Henry Walton Jones Museum of Art & History, St. Jude’s is the local college in the city.
