The past couple of years, the amount of kids out on Halloween has dwindled down in my neighborhood. This year, my wife and I were at her cousin's house and we saw maybe a couple of kids walking around. My wife blames people going to Trunk or Treat things. We both work in retail, so we see more of the public, and nobody was in costume. What was everybody's experience with Halloween this year?

Kind of yes... When I was a kid (born in the 70s, grew up in the 80s) we went all around the neighborhood.

These days you can put your light on, it won't matter. People drive their kids to the rich neighborhoods and trick-or-treat there.

Why the HOAs put up with it is beyond me.
