Sun on hillside fences
Census figures show 12,586 of Monterey Park's 22,134 housing units were built between 1940 and 1969. On those sloped lots, fences often step down the hill in sections, which takes careful work on each run.
Fences facing south and west weather fastest.
Where these facts come from: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020–2024 5-year estimates, table B25034 (via Census Reporter).
Clean first
Fences are washed before staining; see pressure washing.
