Squaw Valley (also known as Yokuts Valley) is a foothill community in eastern Fresno County at approximately 1,600 feet elevation, served by ZIP code 93675. The community is a mix of single-family homes and rural properties with excellent solar exposure — the foothill location provides cooler temperatures than the valley floor, which actually improves solar panel efficiency. Summer temperatures typically run 92–102°F, and PG&E bills for a typical Squaw Valley home run $180–$340 during summer months. PSPS outages are frequent during fire weather season, making battery backup a practical necessity for many Squaw Valley homeowners. Well pumps are common in this community — during a PSPS event, a home without battery backup loses water pressure as well as lights.
