  1. Readers on LA Curbed have chimed in on WalkScore's top neighborhoods for Trick-O-Treating... and most of them have been very critical. Four out of the five cities listed have hilly neighborhoods with poor sidewalk infrastructure. People apparently seem really fond of Hancock Park, Windsor Square, the beach cities, certain neighborhoods in Glendale and Pasadena... I remember the first year we lived in our house in Valley Glen... so many trick-o-treaters! It was so much fun.

  2. The new trend in our area is just to shut down streets entirely so that kids can trick or treat safely. Works for me!
