Trees in Sunbury: what you're dealing with
Sunbury's trees average around fifty feet tall and sixty-plus years old — mature red maples, chestnut oaks, and northern red oaks planted when the city's neighborhoods filled in. The city sits behind its flood wall at the confluence of the Susquehanna's two branches, and storm cells funneling up the river valley hit Sunbury's exposed canopy hard. After a summer storm, a leaning tree with lifted roots on the uphill side is an emergency, not a someday job.
