I would appreciate it someone could identify this tree for me. It is located in Camarillo, California (Sunset zone 23). I am considering it for a backyard tree but I want to know more about it. Links to pictures below. Thanks for any help

Tree:
retusa. Be careful, ficus roots can be very aggressive. After a while, nothing will grow underneath them.
The first picture was taken at the shopping center where I bought my PC.
Indeed. From reading up, it looks like a Ficus microcarpa (F. retusa). I think it makes a handsome tree when pruned as in the picture. Considering the "Green Gem" version for an open space in the rear yard. Thanks for the help.
