The guys you have to watch for are the dirt strips that pop up out of nowhere. I’ve got a neighbor that comes over the towers at 300 feet or so on final to his dirt strip. As I understand it the strip has to be a “public use” airport for the rules to apply.

It is still a good idea to make sure your tower passes the FAA Slope Test even if it is 200 feet or less.

Some towers require paint and/or lights even if they are below 20 feet tall. It is all about location.
