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 could be a cherry blossom tree. I'm guessing you're in the northeast US based on this tree and the southern lilac in the back left. I'm also in the northeast US, and the cherry blossom trees are losing their leaves here already.
I’m in the southeast US, just north of Atlanta, GA. It looks like you are correct about cherry blossom tree. I found out that this is normal time of year for them to lose leaves as you describe, I just haven’t been paying attention… they are not normally found this far south but somehow there are a bunch in the suburbs up here.
