Maplewood was originally formed as South Orange Township back in 1861 from portions of Clinton Township and the Town of Orange. The Township was changed to Maplewood in 1922, which brought significant growth throughout the Maplewood area in both residents and structures.

Residents love Maplewood’s hip downtown area, filled with shops, restaurants, and a movie theater. Arts and culture thrive through the town’s community art centers, artist studios, and art walks. The town’s annual Maplewoodstock is a two-day music and arts festival. The event is hosted at nearby Memorial Park, a 25-acre park with ball fields, tennis courts, and a playground.

With Maplewood’s location adjacent to the South Mountain Reservation, residents can enjoy over 2,000 acres of hiking trails and natural woodlands. Residents can also enjoy a zoo, ice skating area, dog park, two libraries, and a weekly farmer’s market.
