Yolo County
California Central Valley Region

Yolo County was one of the original 27 counties created when California became a state in 1850. "Yolo" is derived from the native Poewin Indian word "yo-loy" meaning "abounding in the rushes". Other historians believe it to be the name of the Indian chief, Yodo, or the Indian village of Yodoi.

Yolo County's 661,760 acres is home to over 150,000 people. Nearly 85% of the population lives in the County's four cities (Davis, West Sacramento, Woodland, Winters). Its proximity to Sacramento International Airport as well as two major interstates place it within a major transportation hub of the state.
