It seems to fluctuate year to year. The most trick or treaters my house ever got was around 50, and the lowest was maybe 3. Usually we get at least 10 or so if we decide to participate. Each year I always buy way too much candy and end up snacking on it myself. Maybe I'm just too hopeful for the little kids to come so I can give them candy. I really really wish I could go trick or treating again. So many years ago it was now.  :crybaby2:

No like we did in the old days!  :dontknow: Nowdays they are taken into the malls and to Holloween festivals and carnivals.  :cat: Much safer and they really don't need all of that candy  :dontknow:

every where i have ever lived there has always been lots of trick or treaters. i miss them all now though due to taking my own kids out on trick or treat night. i have always lived in small towns or cities though.

There are tons of kids who trick or treat in our town.  We dress up as a family and go out together, just leave our candy on the front step for the other kiddos to take.  Surprisingly the basket is never empty when we return!  Our night is always the night before Halloween, the 30th.  Hoping for good weather this year!! :icon_rr:

I'm not sure if children trick or treat where I resided because I just moved to this residence and it's an apartment so I'll see on the 31st for sure.

Yes,  I don't get many kids these days.  I know I have one coming for sure.  I am hoping for more than that.  I have the night off and want to get the yard decorated with just a few things and hand out candy.  I love Halloween.  Liked it more when I was a kid.  It was so much fun when I was old enough to go by myself.

I live in an older neighborhood that is trick or treat friendly.  Usually all the porch lights are lit on our block.  The number of trick or treaters has varied through the years, so it's hard to predict how much candy to buy.  We can see anywhere from 30 to 60 little costumed visitors. Early in the night I hand out 1 or 2 pieces of candy to each child, but after a couple of hours, if a lot of candy is left, each child gets a whole handful!  I don't want all those calories so readily available to me!!

Kids don't come to my house trick or treating, we are far off the beaten track.  I always take my kids to my In laws, they always decorate and dress up.  One of their neighbors has an amazing pirate theme that gets better every year.

We will see.  We just moved into the area so I don't know how many kids we will get. It may be alot since we lived close to a Elementary school.   The last house I lived in, we never had any trick or treaters.  We had no sidewalk in front of the house and no lights on the street.  It was pretty scary at night.
