San Mateo runs the full range: 1920s–30s homes in Baywood and Aragon, postwar ranches in San Mateo Village and Fiesta Gardens, and dense new townhomes and apartments in Bay Meadows and around the downtown and Hillsdale stations.
What that means for the work
The transit-area apartments generate a steady flow of move-in and move-out work — assembly, TV mounting, and wall patching. In Baywood and Aragon the work is older-home maintenance: plaster, wood windows, and doors that have settled. Bay Meadows townhomes are new enough that the calls are mostly mounting, smart devices, and babyproofing.
