Municipal and Federal parking regulations vary by locaiton and agency. From a review of Federal, state and local codes, the range of parking space widths varies from about 8.9 long wide to about 10.9 feet with apparent convergence around 9 feet long. Length appears to vary more, presumably explained by parallel parking requiring more length than head-in or angled parking. Lenght varies from nearly 25 feet long for parallel parking and to as little as 19 feet long, with 20 feet appearing to be a common length.

I found the following at Wikipedia: The typical small or compact stall is about 275 square feet (25 m²), while the average stall is about 325 square feet (30 m²).[1] Note that this area includes the area for parking stall plus the circulation areas, end of aisle areas/landscaping. Common angled or perpendicular parking stalls are 8 to 9 feet (2.4-2.75 m) wide by 16 to 18 feet (4.9-5.5 m) long. Some spaces can be as narrow as 7.5 feet and as wide as 10 feet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_space has more. -Jason
