trick or treat timing question
housemate decorated the front of the house with lights and skeletons. but he has to work today, won't get home until 7:30 or so.
I'm petsitting about a mile from my house, on a dead end street without a lot of trick or treat traffic in recent years. so (with the pet owners' approval) I told him I'd walk home for the evening and greet trick or treaters until he gets home.
when should I expect them to start arriving, given that it's a Saturday? sunset is at 6:15.

@twistylittlepassages our neighborhood is pretty busy with trick or treaters and i would say we usually get a *couple* kids 4-5 but mostly it doesn’t start until 5:30 or so

@twistylittlepassages my general impression is that the suburbs do trick or treating a bit earlier than the cities around here, we definitely get the bulk of our kids post sundown while the suburbs get the bulk just-pre. Idk if it’s a culture thing or a consistency of streetlights thing

@Satsuma interesting! well, I'm not even sure which would apply here, since it's a neighborhood of single family dwellings in a small city.

@Satsuma that's reassuring, thanks! it's going to be tough for me to get there much before 5 anyway
