I'm talking about average residential lots in and around the San Antonio - Dallas Central Texas corridor, where suburbia has cut down everything. I only wish I lived in a spot, or had enough land that nuisance trees were a concern.So you don't count mesquite?
We seem to have mostly texas live oaks and cedars..
Most of our builders seem to clear cut everything, plant some little baby tree, then if you're lucky, in 15 years you have a couple trees on your lot.
Unfortunately, quite a few of my neighbors suffered tree damage/death from the unusual freeze we had here during the power outage debacle. Just within the most immediate 10 houses near my house there are at least 4 dead fully mature trees. Now some of those yards have zero trees, nothing but dead grass from the drought we are having. Some of the remaining trees were "injured" from the freeze and seem to have lost half of their branches/leaves compared to before.
It sucks!
On the plus side, my few trees seem to have survived ok.
edit.. the attached are not my trees, just trees I found to show the type of trees I was talking about.
