From 1959 to 2006 my dad had his house at 2610 Alameda del Los plugus, Street of the fleas. There are millions.

It gets very hot in the summer, don't be fooled. Hillsdale is upscale, great if you afford it.

Thank you

What's the name of the trail near crystal springs? It was a little too quick to catch the name.

[@bayareawilson]

Lower sawyer camp trail and San Andreas trail

Thankfully, cons #2 & #4 are not cons to some of us 😂

[@PandaKing550]

What about renting what's a cheap and nice place nearby?

[@bayareawilson]

The city is creating a lot more housing in the coming years! If you can share where you need to be close to, I can give some recommendations!

[@rumdoullu8500]

This may be a weird question, but.... How long does one have to live in a place to be classified as a "native?"??

[@bayareawilson]

Subjective :) I guess it depends on who you are talking to

[@IRONWEED_]

Con #4 was very vague.

[@Random-gc8by]

I currently live in San Mateo. I’m surprised you didn’t mention abbott middle school. On the school list

[@LexPride-f7e]

What can you say about crime rate? Would be grateful for any information

[@Random-gc8by]

@@LexPride-f7e yeah I did enjoy the video. I can’t say much about the crime Rate because I don’t know about it.

[@lisataner1140]

Pro #5 will be disappearing as soon as the mall owner can redevelop to high rise mixed use buildings. :( The affordability factor will never change since market rate units (or slightly below market) are the money pot du jour, coupled with the fact that commercial continues to be approved and filled with employees who can afford said market rate units.

Hi hi! I am considering making a move out there for a project out there with my current company. My husband and I along with our dog would move out there for 1 to 3 years, and we want to live in downtown so we can walk to most places. Do you have any recommendations for apartments/rentals in the area for

[@bayareawilson]

Yes there’s plenty of options and depends on where you want to be near. Please email or text me

I'm a San Mateo native and never heard of half the neighborhood names he mentioned in the intro of this video.

[@bayareawilson]

It’s names us realtors use 😂

[@rumdoullu8500]

Michael, you probably live in a nice neighborhood and don't care much to branch out of it. All of the neighborhood names that Mr. Leung mentioned are very well known by myself and almost everyone I speak to. . . . especially San Mateo Natives. I've been here since 2001.

[@michaelporter4497]

​@@rumdoullu8500 you've earned a gold star, congratulations! Also, what does a rich neighborhood have to do with anything in this conversation? I grew up in the Hillsdale Gardens, I'm sure you heard of it since you know everything about San Mateo, right?

[@d.nakamura9579]

@@michaelporter4497 why so angry and defensive? There’s been a lot of development in San Matro in recent years, and just because *you* haven’t heard of them doesn’t mean that those San Mateo neighborhoods don’t exist. SMH, what an arrogant attitude. Like you are more up to date on San Mateo real estate than an actual real estate agent.

[@michaelporter4497]

@@d.nakamura9579 lol did I say I knew more than a realtor? Having a pretty boring day, huh? I'm from the Hillsdale Gardens, and no, I haven't heard of neighborhoods like the Eastern Addition ever in my life. Real natives will tell you about neighborhoods like Shoreview, Downtown, Parrot Dr., Laurelwood, Laurie Meadows, Hayward Park, The Village, Norfolk, La Selva, etc. Take your transplant ass back to Ohio

Parkplace Apartments in San Mateo are full of mold and very dangerous. If you are considering living in this beautiful area, I would read the reviews on Park Pl., Apartments in San Mateo on yelp. Because I would never want anybody to go through the illness, the financial loss, and the mental health issues that followed living in that apartment complex. This is happened to multitude of people . ❤🙏🏼

[@MrCooper83]

Wow I did not know that! That area is super nice and clean.

[@joet7940]

Redwood City, Menlo Park and Burlingame have nicer downtown.
