Wow. It really depends on your area, though. I live in a poorer area, not the ghetto, but our neighborhood has alot of older houses with more renters than homeowners. The kids know it too, and many just go to the better neighborhoods. Even though the wife didn't want to give out candy this year, I was still expecting a few knocks. But nothing. I even checked our outside camera and didn't see anyone come up to the house. It was kinda weird.
