Hillsborough, CA, is often praised for its quiet residential feel and well-maintained neighborhoods. Residents enjoy the spaciousness and affluent atmosphere, noting that it’s a great place for families due to its excellent schools and parks. Many appreciate the proximity to nearby amenities and the overall safety of the area. However, some renters find the cost of living to be quite high, with limited affordable housing options leading to frustrations about accessibility. The community is also described as somewhat exclusive, which may not appeal to everyone.
Hillsborough's rental market is relatively small, with a limited selection of listings available. On average, only 7 listings are available per month. The majority of these listings are 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, each accounting for 14% of the total market, with the remaining listings consisting of larger or unique units. When it comes to amenities, air conditioning is a common feature, available in 57% of listings. Garage parking is also a notable perk, found in 57% of apartments. Renters in Hillsborough will need to be flexible with their expectations and act quickly when a suitable apartment becomes available. Keep in mind that these figures are based on historical data, but they should give you a sense of what to expect in the current market.
