BEST NEIGHBORHOOD FOR TRICK-OR-TREATING

1st Place: Third Ward
2nd Place: Downtown’s afternoon event
3rd Place: East Hill

Eau Claries Third Ward by far has the most king-sized candy bars and the fewest Dum-Dum pops, cliché black and orange wax paper candies, or potentially tampered apples. Princesses, scarecrows, and monsters alike can anticipate the best haul here, whereas mom and dad bargain for the biggest dentist bill from trick-or-treaters in that area. In second place is the increasingly popular downtown afternoon event, where every year from 3 to 5pm children ghost and goblins can parade in and out of local businesses, collecting candy as they go. Completing the top three is the East Hill, where like the Third Ward, houses are in close proximity, making it easier to cover more ground faster. – Bailey Berg
