I went through three 100 piece bags of candy!

…I guess I should have saved some for the trick-or-treaters. 
ROFL!! Good line!
As for OP, we had maybe 15 kids total, and lots of leftover candy…
None, unfortunately.
Being in Australia, it’s probably not surprising, but Cadbury’s has been going all-out for about five years to try to get trick-or-treating off the ground, and a handful of friends have seen one or two kids come by and leave depressed.
I don’t really like the idea of a day that you’re expected to spend money on lollies for kids you don’t know and, let’s be honest, would probably involve the police if you tried to give them lollies any other time, so if kids came around I’d fully expect to tell them to rack off.
But then I was in an Asian supermarket last weekend, and next to the salted fish they had three racks full of bags of Happy Plums…
Unfortunately, no kids came around this year, either…
Zero.
Halloween isnt big in Australia, actually its almost non-existant, and if you want to go trick or treating and expect to get any lollies (candy) you’d best warn the neighbours in advance, which is kind of rude isnt it?
Two. One of which didn’t even say “trick or treat” or “thank you.” (He couldn’t have been more than 4, and surprisingly, I didn’t see a parent with him. Weird.)
I’m annoyed, because I live in a large apartment complex and I know I’ve seen full-sized families here. Some possible explanations:
-There’s a number of ethnic and immigrant families in the complex. It’s conceivable that they just don’t do Halloween.
-There’s a number of Catholic families in the area. I know for a fact that a number of them don’t do Halloween. 
-They were scared off by the sound of 80 people in my apartment at my Halloween party.
-Kids are too scared to go out anymore. They must be going to school parties instead.
-The below-freezing temperatures kept them in.
Anyway, I don’t get it. I am, however, stuck with a huge bowl of candy.
What?!? ROFL!
I had about a dozen. They all got a fistfull of candy and a lemon from our overflowing tree in the yard - “So mom can have a drink later” I told them, much to the delight of the moms. One woman came by with two kids and an older pre-teen gal. The girl wasn’t allowed to accept candy though because she was being disciplined for something. WOW! I don’t know what she did but I bet she won’t be doing it again.
grins Only about three. I “accidentally” forgot to turn on the light.

The greatest factor must be that I have never lived in a single family home during this span and the dormitories/apartments/condo’s where I have lived have been very kid-unfriendly.

What? Why the Hell not?
I was brung up Catholic. Everyone did Halloween. Even the nuns decorated for Halloween! Is this some weird new wrinkle to Catholicism? Because AFAIK, Catholics are not anti-Halloween.
None.
Last night was November 3rd.
Halloween was October 31.
That night we musta had some, because while I was at work, somebody ate most of the candy.
Bastiches!
we had fewer than last year. there were maybe 75, and last year well over 100. it was colder this year. there are 2 little groups of obnoxious boys around who are all 12 or 13 this year. we’re all enjoying their visits less than we used to.
usually i sit on my porch in a kind of creepy spiritualist getup and have icky things in jars and stuff for the kids to look at, but as i am unwell this year, i just set up a table with a sort of altar to the elements, and a jack o’ lantern in the middle, and only sat outside part of the time. people were all nice and fun except those 2 groups, who messed around with things before knocking, and it seems they stole some little worthless gemstones from the table. i thought that was really rude. they could at least give me a chance to treat before tricking me.
