tract where the houses are close together and a party atmosphere takes over. My kid usually trick-or-treats in a different area, but this year her usual trick-or-trick friend flaked out at the last minute and she ended up in the McMansion neighborhood frenzy. By 8:00 most households had run out of candy. It was crazy up there. Literally hundreds of kids roaming the streets.

Meantime my neighborhood, all of 5 minutes away, was mostly dead. Husband reported about 20 trick-or-treaters all evening and plenty of candy left over.
