The historic urban-mesa zone and your fence
The mesa climate is mild, but the housing is old. Most homes date to the 1900s through 1940s on tight lots with alley access, and a large share of the original wood fencing is well past its lifespan. Several of these neighborhoods sit in historic or design-review districts, so fence height, material, and street-facing style can be regulated.
The multifamily stock drives boundary, enclosure, and security fencing, while the older single-family homes need full replacement of aged wood and, often, chain link on a budget.
