I grew up in a suburb filled with Bradford pears. Every spring, the whole neighborhood smelled.
It wasn't exactly a barren area -- there were plenty of native trees. We had to rip out a lot of maple seedlings that were trying to grow into the foundation of the house or the middle of the lawn. But they went and filled it with Bradford pears anyway.
