It provides local government services to residents and administers land-use rules intended to preserve the town’s residential character. The zoning framework requires large single-family homes and substantial lots, which leaves no apartments, condominiums, or commercial development within the town limits. Public education for residents is provided by the Hillsborough City School District. The town is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and maintains a modest-sized municipal workforce appropriate to its scope. As of the 2010 census, the population was 10,825, reflecting its identity as a primarily residential community.
