How many trick-or-treaters did y'all get this year?

Zero. Apartments in NYC usually don't get trick-or-treaters. Also we went out last night to a Rocky Horror Picture Show event.
350+ I had 350 pieces to start and gave out 1 per kid. Gave out candy from 5-7:11, then it was all gone, turned out the lights and had some stragglers ringing the door bell and knocking. Our neighborhood is always hit hard, cars line the street, traffic jams galore. The wife made the mistake to try to run an errand, pulled to the end of the drive way and noped right back into the garage...
This was in Siloam Springs, Arkansas.

Mother an law said around 65. I was at the house but never counted how many came. Mostly in groups.
Mom got 0.

More than 200, looked like a halloween movie or something. Ran out of candy at 7:30PM, had to shut down everything turn off lights. It was insane.
30-ish. Which is good considering we spent 3hrs with my 3yo doing... 30 treat bags :D
Also, what the hell with 'giving Pringles'? My son had a bucket full of chips, pringles, Lays, etc. Isn't halloween about candies??

Zero in the UK. Four tins of Roses chocolate will instead be given to my cousin, ruining her diet >:)
None. I live in an apartment complex made up of multiple buildings with three floors each and open stairwells. I know trick or treating in an apartment complex isn't common at all but every year I think 'some helicopter parent who is afraid of letting their kids go to nearby neighborhoods is going to make their kids trick or treat in the apartment complex,' so I buy some candy anyway. No kids show up, my wife says "See? All that candy was a waste. I always tell you not to buy any," and then I eat all the candy.
It isn't some unconscious desire for candy that makes me do it; I'll buy myself candy anytime I want. I just feel like the one year I don't have any candy, I'll get knocks on the door.

Seriously, it feels like a dying holiday. It makes me really sad :(
Only got 15. Parents take kids out during the day and week to events now. Halloween night is now for adults to go out and party.
This is my sentiment too. It seems in recent years that Halloween is being marketed more and more to adults where as when I was a kid it was mostly for the children. Even in costume stores nowadays it seems there are tons more adult costumes that ones for little kids.
