What is a "yard"?

A yard is an outdoor area of land, typically located around a house or building. It can be used for various purposes, such as gardening, playing, or relaxing. Yards are often arranged with grass, plants, trees, and sometimes outdoor structures like patios or fences. They provide a private space for homeowners or renters to enjoy outdoor activities or maintain plants and flowers. Yards can vary in size, from small areas in urban settings to larger spaces in suburban or rural homes. They are often an important part of a property’s overall appeal.
