In the early '90's my neice came and lived with us. I would take her out for Holloween and even then the neighborhood was pretty well lit up. Not like when I was young but not as bad as you would have tought. She would have to walk about 8 blocks to do what we used to do in 2, but it was still good.

I now live in the Suburbs and hand out candy. I get maybe 2 dozen kids all night. It is very depressing to think of what it used to be to what it is now.
I've decided not to pass out anything, joining the rest of my neighbors. For years I was the only one on the block to pass out anything. Last year, I got nobody. I suppose that most people are migrating to better neighborhoods or something.
