Is my white mulberry dying or just stressed?
Answered for Mooresville, Morgan County.
Founded in 1824 by Samuel Moore, Mooresville's residential core is mid-century: the neighborhoods ringing downtown — Ray Youngs, Hadley Highlands, Highland Meadows, Brookmoore, Crestview Heights and Lake Hart — hold homes dating to roughly 1956-1969 by MLS averages. A 1990s infill wave followed (Rooker Trace, Rooker Run, Grandview), then newer sections at Bridgemor Village, East Moore Terrace, Lakeside Commons and Country View Estates; population was 9,411 at the 2020 census. That's the thing that decides what a white mulberry here is likely to be — a mature specimen over a roofline, or nursery stock still establishing. Removing a white mulberry around Mooresville runs roughly $250–$1,400, and in Highland Meadows, Hadley Highlands and Rooker Run access is usually what decides where in that range you land.
What's actually growing in Mooresville
The 1950s-60s core carries trees that are now 65-70 years old — full-size shade trees planted with the houses, well over the rooflines and into the primary conductors. Because the town's code contains no tree chapter and no approved-species list, plantings were never steered toward or away from any species, and ash is gone to emerald ash borer as everywhere in central Indiana.

What's specific to white mulberry
Mulberry rarely declines quietly; it is far more often structurally finished than sick, with decay behind old breaks, hollow stems, and bark sloughing off dead scaffolds while the rest of the tree looks vigorous. Stress is midsummer yellowing or leaf drop after a dry spell; dying is dead limbs and cavities with shelf fungi at old break points in the upper crown — and on a fast-grown, brittle species that can be well advanced while the lower canopy still looks perfectly healthy.
Morgan County rules
Mooresville's codified ordinances contain no trees, shrubs or urban forestry chapter anywhere in the code — nothing comparable to Franklin's street tree permit scheme — and there is accordingly no permit requirement to remove a tree on private property. General nuisance provisions (Title IX, Chapter 91) and the Public Ways and Property chapter (Title XV, Chapter 151) are the only places a dangerous or obstructing tree would be reached.
