The pumpkins are resting comfortably on the doorstep, the costumes are all picked out and the pillow cases ready for filling with candy – Halloween has arrived. But for the ardent candy collector, the serious business of trick-or-treating requires research and a plan of attack. Plotting the best route can make the difference between the joys of a full-sized candy bar versus the dreaded candy corn. A new report from SmartAsset helps goblins and ghouls find the best cities to trick-or-treat.
