Yolo County is located in Northern California, bordered by the counties of Sacramento, Solano, Napa, Lake, Colusa, and Sutter. It is governed by a board of five district supervisors as well as the government of its four incorporated cities: Davis, West Sacramento, Winters, and Woodland. Notwithstanding the presence of the University of California Davis in its midst and the state capital in the neighboring county of Sacramento, Yolo County remains a relatively obscure and rural agricultural area, home to the multi-billion dollar California tomato industry, which dominates 90% of the tomato market in the United States.
