Hillsborough Park balances privacy and convenience, with tree-canopied lanes and architecturally distinctive homes ranging from grand Mediterranean and Tudor estates to thoughtful contemporary designs. Downtown Burlingame and San Mateo sit just down the hill for boutiques, dining, and everyday errands, while the civic services of the Town of Hillsborough keep life running smoothly through resources on the official town site. Weekends often mean fresh-air time on the panoramic Sawyer Camp Trail managed by San Mateo County Parks, or waterfront picnics and science fun at Coyote Point Recreation Area. Residents also appreciate the wider context of San Mateo County and the easy link to the Peninsula’s employers via Caltrain at Burlingame Station.
Education is a hallmark here. The highly regarded Hillsborough City School District anchors the neighborhood, with North Hillsborough School and Crocker Middle School offering strong academics, arts, and community traditions. For high school, families are served by the San Mateo Union High School District, providing well-rated campuses nearby. Local programs through Hillsborough Recreation add sports, camps, and enrichment that make settling in feel seamless.
Commuters value swift access to regional corridors, while homebodies enjoy quiet streets, thoughtful landscaping, and a true neighborhood feel.
