The best places to go trick-or-treating in Metro Vancouver this Halloween

Metro Vancouver is gearing up for a candy-filled Halloween.

With many residences decorated for the holiday season, young kids may ask: Where do I find the best candy and chocolate? Which house, or which neighbour, will be the most generous?

If your neighbourhood is on this list, you may be in for a windfall.

The best neighbourhoods are undeniably suburbs, but unless they’re close to the city you’re in for something of a road trip.

The closer a neighbourhood is to the city, filled with single-family homes and not closed-off condo buildings, the better chance you’ve got for a good haul.

Sniff out the traffic and you’ll surely profit.
