True, it is about a 5 minute drive, but it is clearly separate. The distance consists of either the Blvd of the Allies or Fifth Avenue, and nobody would ever walk from one to the other. Craft Avenue (cross street to Forbes and Fifth) is really the “end” of Oakland. I look at the proximity as a plus: very close to culture, food, shopping and sports.
