Maplewood is a town in Essex County in northeast New Jersey. As of the 2010 census, the population was 23,867 residents. Maplewood shares a border to the north with West Orange and South Orange, Newark and Irvington are to the east, Union to the south and Millburn to the west. The township of Maplewood has consistently been ranked as one of the "most desirable places to live in the United States," and is, for the most part, unchanged since the 1950s, making it quite charming. It's a diverse and family-friendly community with a downtown area known as "the village" or "Maplewood Center." There are several upscale restaurants in Maplewood, along with a bookstore, a toy store, a small supermarket, an independent café and a few other businesses. The town is served by the New Jersey Transit rail station. Nearby West Orange has five golf courses and the only equestrian center in Essex County. Other attractions nearby include South Mountain Reservation, a 2,047-acre wilderness area that remains much as it did centuries ago when Henry Hudson first discovered it. The west branch of the Rahway River flows through South Mountain Reservation and a reservoir and the 25-foot Hemlock Falls lies within its boundaries.
