Fast-growing and currently around 10 feet. Midwest (6a). There are arborvitae sandwiching it with the fence so neighbor has no access.

Looks like Box Elder to me.
looks like boxelder maple
Acer negundo I would say
Any issues to let it grow so close to the fence? It’s on neighbor’s side so I occasionally trim when it hangs over. I don’t think they know or care that it’s there. Worried about sprouts everywhere.
We call them Manitoba Maples here
Same genus, Acer, as red & sugar maple, makes fairly decent firewood once totally dry.
Acer negundo, shit maple
Box elder. Not my favorite tree but does give nice shade. All I think is Box Elder Bugs.
