Following Christian tradition, the Christmas tree would be put up and decorated on December 24, Christmas Eve, and stay up until January 6, the day of Epiphany. Epiphany is a feast day that celebrates God the son, as the human Jesus Christ.
However, it seems most people put their Christmas trees up after Thanksgiving and usually take them down after New Year's Day.
The traditional day is 6th Jan, also for the decorations.
The 6th January is traditional as that is the end of the 12 days of Christmas. Some people take theirs down close to February. However, if you really love the Christmas spirit then keep it up as long as you'd like. Who cares what others think.
That would be up to the individual unless they live in a restrictive neighborhood that requires Christmas decorations to be taken down by a certain time. The majority of people take outside decorations down after New Year's Day.
In most English speaking countries, the decorations are traditionally taken down on 12th night (6th January). In Italy, they continue until Candlemas (2nd February). However in our ever commercial world, decorations in shopping centres go up around October and come down before the January sales.

This all depends on the individual family, as there is no Mormon religious custom about holiday decorations. Some families like to leave their Christmas decorations up longer than others. I grew up a Mormon, and we always took our Christmas decorations down the day after Christmas. Now that I am grown, I usually take my Christmas decorations down on New Years Day. Most facilities owned by the Mormon Church that decorate for Christmas take their decorations down shortly after New Years Day, which is customary for most people in the United States. Maybe the Mormons you know are either too lazy to take down their Christmas decorations, or they love Christmas so much that they don't want to take them down?
There is no right or wrong time to take down the Christmas crib. Many people leave decorations up until the new year and others remove them the day after.

There is no fast rule and it all depends on the individual. Some take down their decorations on the day after Christmas, others after New Year's Day. Some wait until after the traditional day of Epiphany (January 6) which is considered the 12th day of Christmas. Yet others do not bother to take down their outdoor lights and leave them up year round, much to the consternation of their neighbors.
