Generally Investor friendly
STRs are explicitly allowed across Yakima City and Yakima County, but investors must complete land use reviews (Type 1 or Type 3 depending on zoning), obtain a city business license with annual renewal, and meet operational standards (parking, occupancy, signage). The 5-unit cap per parcel and mixed process complexity keep it from being “very friendly,” yet the legal clarity and absence of city-wide quotas/supportive tone place it in the friendly tier.
