Actually, is there a pub within walking, $5 Uber or bike ride distance?
If not, you have an even larger problem.

You don't really NEED a chainsaw for a Bradford pear.

A few well-placed amateur karate chops will take most of it down. Then make some whooshing wind noises with your mouth and that should handle the remainder.

Probably because they breed faster than rabbits.

Let me ask you this: was there a Bradford pear in the yard when you looked at this house the first time?
CASE CLOSED.

They breed fast, and they sell houses in cookie cutter neighborhoods to middle class, early 30's white women who idolize Joanna Gaines and never miss an event at Newspring.
I like them because they make great firewood for camping trips. Bradford Pear makes a coal bed that burns longer than anything else I've used on my trips where I can haul firewood.

The person who bought my house didn't notice the two 50' gum trees in the front and the magnolia and live oak in the back.

We do have a big ole oak, which may cause some issues later as half the branches are in the neighbors yard, but I've no problem with it.

A yard with Bradfords May as well be a big neon sign saying “rob me”.
