Is This Really An Avocado Tree?

Question

I have a mystery tree that sprouted next to my house. I didn’t cut it down because I thought it might be some kind of fruit tree but it’s nothing I’ve ever seen; also nothing I can identify that grows in the woods around here. My sister-in-law says it looks like an avocado tree to here, but those don’t grow here. It’s been here 4 years total, gets a little bigger every year. It’s around 7.5 to 8 feet high now.

Answer 1

The only thing that grows in your area, that this resembles to me, would be the persimmon!
