Yolo County ( /ˈjl/ ; Wintun: Yo-loy), officially the County of Yolo, is a county located in the northern portion of the U.S. state of California. Yolo County was one of the original counties of California, created in 1850 at the time of statehood. As of the 2020 census, the population was 216,403. [4] [5] Its county seat is Woodland. [6]

Yolo County is included in the Greater Sacramento metropolitan area and is located in the Sacramento Valley.

Etymology

In the original act of 1850 the name was spelled "Yola." Yolo is a Patwin Native American name variously believed to be a corruption of a tribal name Yo-loy meaning "a place abounding in rushes", the village of Yodoi, believed to be in the vicinity of Knights Landing, California, or the name of the chief of said village, Yodo. [7] [8]

History

Yolo County was one of the original counties of California, created in 1850 at the time of statehood.

Government

The county is governed by a board of five district supervisors as well as the governments of its four incorporated cities: Davis, West Sacramento, Winters, and Woodland.

Transportation

Major highways

County roads

Addressing in Yolo County is based on a system of numbered county roads. The numbering system works in the following way:

  1. North–South roads have numbers from 41 to 117 and increase from west to east.
  2. East–West roads have numbers from 1 to 38A, and then from 151 to 161, and increase from north to south.

Each integer road number is generally one mile (1.6 km) apart, with letters occasionally designating roads less than one mile (1.6 km) apart. County roads entering urban areas generally become named roads once they cross a city boundary. Some examples include County Road 101 in Woodland being renamed Pioneer Ave. and County Road 102 (also known as County Route E8) in Davis being named Pole Line Road.

Yolo is a strongly Democratic county in presidential and congressional elections. The last Republican presidential candidate to win a majority in the county was Dwight Eisenhower in 1952, which is the longest Republican drought for any California county. [16] In fact, since 1928, Eisenhower's win in 1952 was the only time the county was carried by the Republican presidential nominee.

Yolo County ( /ˈjl/ ; Wintun: Yo-loy), officially the County of Yolo, is a county located in the northern portion of the U.S. state of California. Yolo County was one of the original counties of California, created in 1850 at the time of statehood. As of the 2020 census, the population was 216,403. [4] [5] Its county seat is Woodland. [6]

Yolo County is included in the Greater Sacramento metropolitan area and is located in the Sacramento Valley.

Etymology

In the original act of 1850 the name was spelled "Yola." Yolo is a Patwin Native American name variously believed to be a corruption of a tribal name Yo-loy meaning "a place abounding in rushes", the village of Yodoi, believed to be in the vicinity of Knights Landing, California, or the name of the chief of said village, Yodo. [7] [8]

History

Yolo County was one of the original counties of California, created in 1850 at the time of statehood.

Major highways

County roads

Addressing in Yolo County is based on a system of numbered county roads. The numbering system works in the following way:

  1. North–South roads have numbers from 41 to 117 and increase from west to east.
  2. East–West roads have numbers from 1 to 38A, and then from 151 to 161, and increase from north to south.

Each integer road number is generally one mile (1.6 km) apart, with letters occasionally designating roads less than one mile (1.6 km) apart. County roads entering urban areas generally become named roads once they cross a city boundary. Some examples include County Road 101 in Woodland being renamed Pioneer Ave. and County Road 102 (also known as County Route E8) in Davis being named Pole Line Road.
