Tree work in a residential yard

A borough of owned houses

South Plainfield stands out in the census numbers: 86 percent of homes are owner-occupied and 78 percent are single-family detached, both well above the county figures of 64 and 52 percent. Most trees here sit on private lots, so the homeowner decides on care and carries the risk.

Only about 4 percent of homes date from 1939 or earlier, so roughly two-thirds were built between 1940 and 1979. A check of the largest trees near the roof, driveway, and any pool is a reasonable place to start, and we give written estimates for it.
