The average resident makes double what the average household income is in the region. It’s essentially the wealthiest neighborhood in the region without gates to keep the poors out. The houses are not too far apart for kids to walk either. So most of the community brings their kids to walk around this neighborhood. I get 400-500 trick or treaters on average.
As my wife and I both grew up well below the poverty line we are very generous with the candy.
I’m not American … I’m in Canada in northern Ontario … we don’t have kids so I have a bit of extra cash, plus I grew up poor so I know what this holiday means to many kids, especially in my area where families don’t have a lot, especially these days.
A couple hundred on candies 😳 The US are crazy
Am american and I have never ever heard of someone spending “hundreds” of dollars on halloween candy. 99.9% of americans are not doing that.
Come to my neighborhood.
