Halloween is just around the corner, and soon little ghouls and goblins will be walking around your neighborhood in search of the sweetest candy! (Kids, not actual ghouls and goblins FYI)

For the most part, every neighborhood I’ve gone trick-or-treating as a child or as an adult with my son has been pretty friendly. However, apparently not all states are friendly when it come’s to trick-or-treating.

A recent study ranked the top 100 American cities based on their "trick-or-treater friendliness." The study considered population density, walkability, crime rates, the "perception of safety," and even the chilling stats of vehicle accidents involving pedestrians. *Shrieks in Spanish*

Shockingly, New York City took the coveted crown for the most trick-or-treater-friendly. New York City's bustling streets, neighborhoods galore, and a sense of security make it the perfect destination for a candy quest…. According to this survey.
