==History==
The South Essex Fire Department was formed on July 1, 2022 when the Maplewood Fire Department and South Orange Fire Department merged. About 76 firefighters are employed who protect a combined population of about 44,000 residents among almost 7 square miles. South Orange also operates a volunteer ambulance squad located next door to South Orange Fire Headquarters that supplements South Essex's BLS level emergency medical services.
