A typical NJ suburban enclave which attracts people from the city and more urban area (like Hoboken NJ), particularly people with kids who are looking for decent public schools. Property taxes for the average home probably well north of $20k/year.
Nice little town to live? Yes... best in USA? NFW, and I love NJ having spent most of my life here.

There’s also 3 very different towns in Maplewood.
Maplewood - Town Center, decent upper middle class homes, good restaurants, boutique shopping, etc.
MapleGood - 1% residences
MapleHood - Draw your own conclusions
