I would appreciate it someone could identify this tree for me. It is
located in Camarillo, California (Sunset zone 23). I am considering it
for a backyard tree but I want to know more about it. Links to
pictures below. Thanks for any help

This is a ficus, likely F. elastica (rubber tree) or possibly F.
