Can someone identify the following tree for me?

The tree is growing in a suburban yard in Sunnyvale, California (San Francisco
Bay Area).
Thanks.

This is a UK (United Kingdom) group, so we are not particularly
qualified to identify Californian trees.
However, try Ailanthus.

It does look like it.
Grabbing a leaf and crushing would tell for sure - it stinks.

True, but some of us have some clue about such things.

The leaves look right, but the bark doesn't, and what may be the
residue of the flowers doesn't, either. And I am afraid that
lots of other leaves stink!

Perhaps a better photo would help to clarify.
I'm currently in the US (east coast) and there are a number of stinky
Ailanthus in the area which look very like that one.
