Hi Cloudy...
Living in the rural Northwest, about forty miles out of Seattle, the common lot size is 1 to 5 acres, and nearly everybody has a fence or hedge. One reason is the livestock that occasionally wanders about, as a misplaced goat can wreak havoc on a garden in no time at all. Another reason, to quote Walt Whitman, "Good fences make good neighbors."
And of course we're all gun-totin', flannel-wearin, truck-drivin' rednecks, and who wants that in their front yard?
