ZIP 02828 in Greenville, Rhode Island (RI) sits in zone 6b with winter lows -5 to 0 F. That is warmer than your zone 5a, so trees there face more summer heat and humidity. Heat-tolerant species like crape myrtles are common there. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward trees that can handle both cold winters and muggy summers. For your area, that means selecting trees like Chinese Elm that tolerate a broad temperature range.

ZIP 22210 in Arlington, Virginia (VA) is zone 7b with winter lows 5 to 10 F. That climate is milder and drier in summer than yours. Drought-tolerant trees like oaks and junipers do well there. The practical difference is that trees for ZIP 49853 need to endure deep freezes as well as occasional dry spells. Zone 5a trees like Skyrocket Juniper and Weeping Willow handle that balance.

ZIP 29733 in Rock Hill, South Carolina (SC) is zone 8a with winter lows 10 to 15 F. That is far warmer than your area, so cold-hardiness is less critical there.

In your yard, that means picking species like Tamukeyama Japanese Maple that can survive -20 degree snaps when placed in a sheltered site.

For your yard in this ZIP, the contrasts show that cold-hardiness is the top priority, but tolerance to summer stress also matters. Choose trees that fit both extremes.
