Ten Lawton Neighborhoods Rank Best For Trick-or-treating This Halloween Season

When I was of trick-or-treating age in the 90s, my parents would first have me go door-to-door in our neighborhood before heading to the town's biggest neighborhood. And even though its 30 plus years later and Lawton is much larger than my hometown, parents are still doing the same trick-or-treating practice.

My sister now has children of trick-or-treating age, and she does the same thing my parents did with us when we were little. She takes them to trick-or-treat at a few houses in their neighborhood before coming over to my house for a Halloween party and trick-or-treating in one of Lawton's top trick-or-treating neighborhoods.
