Don’t live in San Mateo, but general advice that’s worked for me: just get involved in activities around you that you’re interested in. Eg you might be able to join a writing club, or photography or motorcycle clubs - any thing which enables you to have a shared context that you’re already excited about.
But more realistically you’ll probably befriend people from work more than others 😂
I live in San Mateo and it's great! There are lots of groups that are hobby based so if you like to bike, hike, garden, knit, whatever... you can find friends pretty easy on the peninsula.
Pro
I lived in sf for 2 years and the peninsula/South Bay for the last 6 years and my friends are only people from work or school. Making friends is difficult around here. I think you’d have better luck in the city.
Agree with the suggestion on hobbies. I like to fish and connected a few years with others that fish through an online forum. A few of them are now among my best friends.
