We average about 200 trick or treaters each year. There are only 32 houses on our street, I think they bus them in! That, or, they may just be coming by to see real big pumpkins!

We have had 5 or 6 in the past 18 years. We have the candy ready... nobody shows... I get the candy! The kids must all go north to Rocky's house. Maybe better candy! or bigger pumpkins!

Last year, 240. Without any AG's on display. I expect to get whammed this year with some of my 250# plus 'lil' fellers out and a fully decorated yard (again).

I'm known as the 'pumpkin lady' here too.

[when we looked at this place the realtor lady said 'expect 300' ...]

0-4 years and counting so far. Was asked this morning if we had anything for kiddies just in case tonight. Yes, but we never get any. Watch, this year will be the exception. Where we live, 3 houses on our street and farm land across the street. So not likely to have any unless they are immediate family members.

20 - 30. 'okiegal the exaggerator’ has the most coming, that’s a surprise

291 was the count. Plus I signed up two more to grow, including one that wants to put in a kid patch and a corn maze.

We do, Sir David, we're in the traditional 'good neighborhood' and I decorated my yard up seriously. Draws them in. Carloads of large extended mexican families (we have a high tejano population here) and a lot of school kids... that I'd visited their classroom and got them to grow tomatoes. Two babies in arms dressed up cute, and four more at 'just walking' age in the batch including a very cute pair of twin girls. :) It was a beautiful clear night, almost calm, and fairly warm...that also brought them out.
