Answered for Speedway, Marion County.
Tree Removal in Speedway runs about $400 to $1,900, averaging near $720. Speedway was laid out in 1912 as a residential suburb by Indianapolis Motor Speedway founders Carl Fisher, James Allison, Frank Wheeler and Arthur Newby — a "horseless city" for auto-industry workers. The Speedway Historic District (41.6 acres, 304 contributing buildings, NRHP September 15, 2005) built out from about 1912 to 1955 in Foursquare and Craftsman bungalow styles; the town then more than doubled, from 5,498 people in 1950 to 14,523 in 1970, and new single-family construction has been close to nil since the 1990s. In Old Speedway City (Speedway Historic District), Speedway Manor and Main Street corridor, access is usually the swing factor rather than the tree itself.

No public street-tree inventory has been published for Speedway, so species counts are UNVERIFIED. Because the residential core finished building out by the mid-1950s and has barely been rebuilt since, much of the yard canopy is likely of comparable age and large enough to close over narrow streets and 40-to-50-foot lots — an inference from build-out dates, not a measured finding. The exception is Main Street, where a town streetscape reconstruction installed all-new landscaping, so those trees are recent.
Speedway sits on the Tipton Till Plain with Eagle Creek and its tributaries along the southwest edge, so the west side has soft creek-floodplain ground where trees grow fast but anchor poorly when saturated, while the upland core is dense clay till with shallow, plate-like root systems.
Height — a 20-footer is a few hundred, an 80-foot oak over a roof is four figures. Access — can a truck and chipper get to it, or is everything carried by hand. What's underneath — a clear yard versus a roof, a fence, a pool or a power drop. Condition — dead and brittle costs more than live, because it can't be climbed.
