Halloween is coming around the same time we’re seeing supply shortages. So what does that mean for trick-or-treaters?

Laredo was the only city in Texas to be ranked out of 20 cities and states, where they looked at candy and chocolate stores per capita, to average price per Halloween party ticket, as well as share of potential trick-or-treat stops.    

The Gateway City was also ranked 5th best by WalletHub in terms of trick-or-treat friendliness and 14th for Halloween weather.
