Hillsborough is 18 miles away from San Francisco. There are a half dozen cities between them. Oakland is closer to San Francisco than Hillsborough is. That’s just sloppy reporting.

Incidentally, the Flintstone House used to be white...it was easy to spot from the highway before it was painted. I’m guessing it was painted to appease the neighbors. Hillsborough is one of several pockets of rich people on the peninsula (Atherton, Los Altos and Woodside are others), and I’m sure everyone there is very concerned about property values.
