Default Invisible Fence Feasiblity

We have used an invisible fence in Michigan for several years. The dog is well trained and supervised and has freedom to roam front, back, and side yards. The field on the in-ground line is set for approx. 6ft. (3 ft. on each side of wire).

With designer houses being close together in The Villages, is it feasible to use an IF around the property? It would seem likely that turning up a proper depth of field around the wire would preclude the use of most of the yard, especially that abutting a neighbors property (e.g. side of house). Any experience with this?
