Fence heights in unincorporated Yolo County are set by county zoning — generally up to 6 feet in side/rear yards and 3–4 feet in front yards in residential districts, with agricultural fencing allowances on the county's extensive farmland.
Fence heights in unincorporated Yolo County follow the familiar residential pattern: roughly 6 feet in side and rear yards, 3–4 feet in front yards where visibility matters, all set through county zoning. The county's character adds a second track — on its extensive farmland, agricultural fencing allowances apply, accommodating the taller and sturdier fencing that stock and crops require. District determines everything, so the same fence can be fine on one parcel and a violation on the neighboring one if a zoning line runs between them. Inside city limits, city rules apply instead. Confirm your district's numbers before building.
