A picturesque town in Essex County, Maplewood is located on the
East Branch of the Rahway River. Originally consisting of farms, mills and
orchards, Maplewood is now a great mix of residential and commercial areas,
culminating in the jewel of a downtown village and coming together to create a
charming, tight-knit and diversified community. Maplewood has predominantly
Colonial and Tudor style homes with sprawling porches and ample greenery, but
you can also find some Victorians and a range of more modern style construction
on its beautiful tree lined streets. Maplewood is a diverse town with 6
elementary schools and prominent municipal building designed by famous
architects, Guilbert and Betelle. In the center of town, famed landscape
architects, the Olmstead Brothers, created the breathtaking Memorial Park; not
to be overlooked is Ricalton Square, nestled between the train station and the
downtown shopping; this area is frequently used for events including a
Halloween Parade with hayrides and petting zoos, as well as featuring replica
homes during the Winter Holiday Season. The town offers many activities to its
residents from camps in the summer, arts and crafts classes, a public pool
(with 4 pools ranging from a “baby” pool to toddler pool to large lap pool and
a diving tank) and a farmers market when in season. There is even an annual
musicalpalooza--Maplewoodstock—featuring a variety of bands and musical styles,
showcasing local and national bands with booths for local businesses to set up.
The Village, also known as Maplewood Center, is a quaint, downtown shopping
district with everything from restaurants with foods from all over the world,
bakeries, dance studios, gyms, bookstores, a movie theater and bookstores. With
its large variety of cuisines to choose from, Maplewood recently started a
yearly town-wide Restaurant Week with over 30 eateries participating. Easily
accessible by its throughways and the New Jersey Transit, it's no surprise
Maplewood has been ranked several times as one of the most desirable places to
live in America by a number of surveys. Let's work together to find you your
