Ugh, my backyard has this. I really, truly hate so much of what the previous previous owner did with the landscaping here. They did put in a couple of regional natives, but not in great locations for them. The rest is non-native and largely invasive.

I've got privet they put in the center of my backyard because they used to have a hot tub there and used it as like a hedge to separate it a little bit from the rest of the little backyard. Now it just looks like an ugly, tattered hedge in the middle of the yard growing at all kinds of weird angles. It just keeps spreading and spreading, even with my dogs periodically destroying it by running right through it and me cutting chunks off of it.

There's also super thick weed fabric underneath of everything and plastic mesh underneath of the turfgrass they put in. It's so hard to get rid of anything.
