I would delete "brimming" from the second sentence and "ranging" from the third sentence.

Have I made any mistakes?
Kingswood is, at first glance, an enchanting suburban dream. An exclusive location brimming with wide roads, golden maple trees, and verdant lawns. The majority of residents are white-collar professionals ranging from university researchers to government officials. Among these accomplished inhabitants, drug smuggler Pedro Picar, who adopted a fake identity as an illustrious professor, orchestrates and oversees all the cocaine distribution on the West Coast from his innocuous home. Be that as it may, several anonymous reports about armored vehicles circulating his property with cargo boxes have been submitted to the local newspaper. Although this has raised suspicion in the neighborhood, the police have opted to keep their distance from the area, as it has been deemed righteous by the municipal council.

Not a professional teacher
For the fourth sentence, try:
One of the residents, ....
If was going to adopt a fake identity it wouldn't be an illustrious one.

What do you mean by ,"righteous" in the last sentence?
Circulating - going around
What is an "innocuous home"?
What are "cargo boxes"?

Thanks for your comments, buddy.
Do you suggest deleting 'brimming' and 'ranging' because I misused them? Or because they're unnecessary?
In the fourth sentence, do you suggest swapping "Among these accomplished inhabitants" for "One of the residents"?
Off-topic questions.
'If was going to adopt a fake identity it wouldn't be an illustrious one.' What would it be?
Would it be grammatically correct if I word the first clause of your sentence as 'If I were to adpot'?
By 'righteous' I meant 'in good standing'.
Cargo boxes are those enclosures that are generally mounted on the roof of vehicles to carry cargo.
An ordinary home that doesn't draw attention. Would 'unassuming' or 'modest' be more accurate word choices?
I concede that it's rare enough to see cars with rails on top, and even more rarely see anything on top of those rails in 'murica, but these luggages on top of cars are ubiquitous in Poland.
