When my son was two, we bought a perfect tiny replica of ACU camouflage from clothing and sales, and put his dad’s real patches and rank on them. We bought him little boots that were the right color, and he looked perfect. Except for the long hair, because he hadn’t had his upsharen yet. It still fit on Purim.
About 100. Down from last year but I think that was because we’re on a 6 house cul-de-sac and a couple of the houses were “dark” this year so many groups didn’t bother heading down. The guy two houses down was doing something to scare the kids who showed up on his porch so I got to hear screams followed by laughs every 5 to 10 minutes. Sounded like a lot of fun.
My son went as Nathan Drake from the Uncharted video games. I thought his costume was pretty cool and I got to practice my tonsorial skills to get the hair right. He heads to a real barber today to get it fixed ;-).
Well, I’m on 12 acres with coded gates so I didn’t expect anyone. However, the barn cat dressed up in a very realistic cat costume and yowled at my door for some Meow Mix. Does that count? 
2 kids from the family across the street before it was even dark, then a group of 5, and a single about 30 minutes later. I never have many, I’d say this was up from the last couple of years.
12 years in a 14 home rural subdivision. Never had any trick or treaters.

We had 60-70 kids. It’s weird - one Halloween EVERY light will be on, the following year hardly any. This year was a hardly any. Gave away none of the Teal Pumpkin Project gift bags (which was a shame, as both my daughter and I went a little nuts with them).
Cutest: 2 year old girl dressed as a strawberry, including leaf cap. She was adorable.
Favorite: 4 year old boy in a Captain America costume. When I complimented him on his costume choice, I became his best friend. Dad (as Indiana Jones) had to pull him away, as Cap’n was angling to come on in and chat some more
Disconcerting: 10 year old buy dressed as the Denver movie theater killer, James Holmes.
I had a half dozen Pikachus, only three cats, two Screams, and maybe a dozen sans costume at all.
We got maybe 30-40 ToTs. Best costume was a little three year dressed as a chicken. We ran out of candy for the first time in years.
Every last one of the ToTs said “thank you”. I think they were bussing them in from somewhere, but who cares.

This was adorable:
Maybe-4-year-old little boy had a pumpkin bucket roughly the size of a softball (must have emptied it into Mom’s bag between houses); I dropped in three pieces which almost filled his softball. He had seen me give the other kid in his group some Skittles and he turned to his Mom and whispered Ooo, I’d like to have some Skittles! As Mom was starting to shush him, I stuffed two Skittles into his over-flowing softball and his face lit up! All us adults agreed you can’t turn down a (polite) Skittles fan!
None. My wife saw a few on the street, but no one came to our door.
A nearby shopping mall is advertising a Halloween candy buy-back. They’re paying $1 per pound (up to $5) for leftover candy. Never saw that before.
Probably around 150-200. We live in a popular area, the kind where people come from other neighborhoods to trick or treat. Best costume was a family of robots with flashing lights and circuitry covering them.
This happened several times, and was funny each time:
Kids would knock, door would open, eyes would get big as saucers (I’m toting a BIG bowl of treats) and then they would forget to holler ToT. No biggie. Load 'em up, they turn to go, Mom says What do you say?, they spin around and holler TOT, adults break up, kids say (slightly embarrassed)** Thank you** and proceed with their stalking of sugar.
2 groups, 3 kids total. One young lady was in a really excellent vampire outfit. Bought two bags of candy and have a lot left over. Turned off the outside lights at 8:00 after an hour of no activity.
No ToT this year, as usual. But there was a huge carnival/Halloween celebration a couple of blocks over with searchlights and all sorts of stuff going on, so we expected no one to show up.
OTOH, my debate team won “Best Team Costume” at the tournament this weekend. They all put on khaki pants, red sweaters and penciled in thin mustaches. Second year in a row they’ve won the Team prize.
For the 18th straight year we pitched a ‘shutout’. When you live at the end of an unlighted cul-de-sac in a heavily-wooded unlighted neighborhood up a steep 200’ gravel drive, the prospects of candy must seem equally dim. The solitary flickering light in the tower window probably puts off the braver applicants.
My son won a prize at school for his Cthulhu costume. We had to improvise quite a bit, but it turned out well. Now ask me how many people knew who Cthulhu was. 1. That’s right. I was stunned. Oh well. He was thrilled anyway. No one knew what he was, but they liked it anyway.
My parents got 1 trick or treater. They live on a very quiet street.
About 20 (plus 3 trick or treating for the local food shelf)
Don’t remember any remarkable costumes

Heard that a lot. 
I meant to ask, but did anyone see any Deadpool costumes? I didn’t and I was expecting at least a few among the older kids.
55 kids at the house this year. However, I again overestimated the number of kids I’d get this year so I still have a lot of candy left over.
In other words, you estimated perfectly.
