Answered for Camby, Camby is an unincorporated Decatur Township (Marion County) community; the adjacent Heartland Crossing development spans Marion, Morgan and Hendricks counties. County.
Because the subdivisions were farm ground until the late 1990s and were planted all at once, Camby's canopy is unusually uniform in age — a whole town of trees hitting 20 to 27 years simultaneously, with no old-growth street trees in the newer sections and mature wood only in fencerow remnants and along the Links at Heartland Crossing golf corridor. The late-1990s planting era means Callery/Bradford pear is common here; Indiana has proposed adding it to the banned invasive list but as of 2026 that ban had not taken effect. (Species mix is inferred from the verified build era rather than from a tree inventory.) That context matters for eastern white pine: it gets planted constantly here and the soil does not want it — purdue documents "white pine decline" specifically as an indiana clay-soil disorder, where trees look fine for fifteen or twenty years and then quit. Removing an eastern white pine around Camby runs roughly $400–$1,900, and in Heartland Crossing, The Mission at Heartland Crossing and The Sanctuary access is usually what decides where in that range you land.

Camby is two housing stocks with nothing in between. The original railroad crossroads dates to 1888, when Don Carlos Morgan donated land for a depot, and it stayed small and rural for a century. Then Heartland Crossing's master declaration was recorded October 30, 1997 with build-out from 1998, so the overwhelming majority of Camby's houses are 1998 through the 2010s — meaning almost every tree in town is planted nursery stock now 20 to 27 years old, big enough to reach the roofline and the service drop but not yet old enough to have developed major structural defects.
Prune in late winter or early spring while dormant, because it bleeds resin heavily from growing-season cuts, and pines set no latent buds on old bare wood — anything cut back past the last needled whorl stays a bare stub for the life of the tree. The only correct way to keep one smaller is pinching the soft candles in late spring; shearing the woody branches like a hedge permanently ruins it.
Camby is unincorporated — there is no town government and no municipal tree ordinance. The Morgan County Unified Development Ordinance governs (it applies to land not under Martinsville, Monrovia, Mooresville or Morgantown zoning), and it contains no permit requirement for removing a tree on existing private residential property. What it does regulate is new development: bufferyard and street-tree plantings at 2-inch caliper (2.5-inch in the I-69 overlay), and any existing tree shown as preserved on an approved development plan must be welled and protected against grade change. The Marion County slice of the Camby area falls instead under Indianapolis–Marion County rules requiring a DPW Flora permit for right-of-way work. In practice the binding rule for most Camby homeowners is the HOA: the recorded Heartland Crossing master declaration obliges owners to cut down and remove dead trees.
