I’m seeing these in my neighborhood that have already lost all their leaves. I can’t remember what kind of tree they are and is this normal time of year for them to lose their leaves or early?

It’s a birch, I think a European white birch. It shouldn’t be losing leaves this early. Look closely at the bark and see if you see a series of holes. If so, it’s infested with Birch borers, and the tree is probably a goner. With all of that being said, the best thing the homeowner can do is hire a certified arborist to evaluate the tree.
Turns out it is a cherry blossom tree. There are a bunch in my neighborhood that have lost their leaves like this which I’m finding out is normal for them in late August. The birch trees around here are still green along with a lot of other types. They don’t lose their leaves till late September and early October
That’s what I get for trying to ID a tree on my phone. Glad you figured it out, though!
