Monsters appear inside the settlement
    I have a large settlement with several houses on the territory. The territory is completely fenced. Monsters appear on the territory of the settlement (not in houses). Why?

    You need certain types of structures to block spawns. Torches fires and workbenches being the main ones. 
You notice the radius a work bench has when you place one? nothing will spawn inside that but they could in any small gap of coverage.
A wards a good large area cover as well consider a few of those strategically place and see how you get on.

also, if you build on a beach, it's impossible to completely wall yourself off from the outside because creatures can swim around any structure you put up.

This was my first mistake, I fixed it.
But in this topic there was a question about spawning monsters inside a full fence.
