As someone who took their 2.5 year old trick or treating this year, I can tell you that everyone was in the Rountree neighborhood. I mean, easily a few hundred people. Grand and Pickwick was popping. Cops still had the streets blocked off at 8.

That's cool, but it bums me out because I live in that area and got stuck at work tonight. At least the handful from the long stays are very poor kids who really appreciate being told they can have as much candy as their mom allows.

Rountree usually gets a couple thousand. The Pickwick/Weller folks generally count 2500 or so in the first few hours. The side streets and parallel streets get in the mid hundreds.

Next year they’ll have to place cops at Bennett and Pickwick too or else someone is going to get killed crossing Bennett*
