Burlingame, Suburban city in San Mateo County, California.

The city extends along the San Francisco Peninsula with substantial shoreline on San Francisco Bay, containing numerous eucalyptus groves throughout residential areas.

Originally part of Rancho San Mateo in 1846, the area transformed after William Davis Merry Howard planted eucalyptus trees and the city incorporated in 1908.

The Kohl Mansion, constructed in 1914, represents early 20th-century architecture and currently functions as part of Mercy High School campus.

Burlingame connects to San Francisco through three major highways and Caltrain service, while maintaining two main commercial districts on Burlingame Avenue and Broadway.

The city commemorated its namesake diplomat Anson Burlingame in 2018 with a ceremonial bust unveiling, marking 150 years since the US-China Burlingame Treaty.
