We usually have several groups of families in our neighborhood. Our streets were packed this year, though. First Halloween in a while that wasn't cold or raining or both.
Our neighborhood only has two entrance streets with a lot of connecting interior streets and cul de sacs which makes it a wee safer due to no through streets and less traffic.
Many families set up firepits in their driveways to hand out candy, sometimes with music playing or movies projected on garage doors, one house has a popcorn machine every year. This year several houses had buckets of mini shots for parents and a lot of others smelled like some dank vape. When we drank we used to bring a wagon with wine and cups to share with neighbors. It's a really great time.
This year there was even an Inflatable Cupcake Castle of Doom.
Last year there was a haunted house set up so that at the end you were watching the next group on cameras and you controlled the puppets and stuff, very Jigsaw style. That house has always had an elaborate haunted house but couldn't do it this year.
So...yeah, trick or treating is still alive in our neighborhood.
