Burlingame
Lyon Hoag
Almost half of the homes sold in Lyon-Hoag in 2023 closed escrow below $2 million, a somewhat surprising development for a neighborhood that seemed poised to vault into Burlingame’s middle class after robust years in 2020, 2021, and 2022. After gaining 35% in average home values between 2020 and 2021 and mostly treading water in 2022, in 2023 the average sale price was $2.115 million, 24% lower than 2021’s peak. Also down year-over-year were price per square foot (11% to $1,296) and overall sales (down 30% to 14) while average DOM almost doubled, from 23 to 38.

All addresses in Burlingame go to Burlingame High School (In 2003, the district lines were redrawn to incorporate this change).

Burlingame shares a common history with neighbors San Mateo, Millbrae and Hillsborough, but only up to a point. Like the surrounding communities, Burlingame was once the site of native Costanoan villages and then part of a Mexican land grant (Rancho Buri Buri to the north and Rancho San Mateo to the south). Burlingame’s history diverges from that of nearby Peninsula cities in the late 1800s, when Francis Newlands, son-in-law of landowner and Nevada Senator William Sharon, came up with a plan to turn this stretch of real estate into a playground for San Francisco’s wealthiest residents.
