MAPLEWOOD A COOL PLACE FOR NEW YORKERS?

According to Time Out New York, if you live in Jackson Heights, Queens, you would love Maplewood:

Trade: Jackson Heights, Queens for Maplewood


Get there: NJ Transit to Penn Station: 28mins 

Live there: NYC’s cultural and ethnic diversity isn’t always easy to find elsewhere, but it’s well entrenched in this burb, with a 40 percent nonwhite population and active gay and artistic communities. 

The quaint streets look like they haven’t changed much since the early 20th century, but Maplewood offers more than retro charm, such as a few gourmet hot spots, like the popular Freeman’s Fish Market (155 Maplewood Ave between Durand Rd and Inwood Pl, 973-763-9363).
