I live on a few acres outside of town and the area has quite a few houses around us but so many of the neighbors are rumored to be involved with drugs. I have several nieces and nephews and their spouses and kids living on the property. Instead of going to some of the houses around us, they pack up everyone and either go to one of the malls or shopping centers that have Halloween in the shops or they go to a gated community one of my friends live in and go around with my friend and her grandkids. The parents enjoy the outing and the kids have a blast. And they are pretty safe, especially since there's over a dozen of them all together.
