PHOTOS: The Ten Best Cities To Trick-Or-Treat

October 20, 2011

Between the threat of razor blades in Kit Kat bars, roaming sex offenders and large spans of dark, empty roads, Halloween has the reputation of being a pretty hazardous holiday. Luckily, the data-heads over at Zillow have compiled a brand-new list of the best cities to trick-or-treat in. Researchers analyzed a host of factors, including safety, walkability, population density and median home values to determine the top places to hit the streets with the kiddies this year. Not surprisingly, the progressive haven of San Francisco came in first place, followed by Boston and Honolulu. But some unexpected spots (San Jose? Virginia Beach?) managed to make the cut, too. Unfortunately, the final list may give our friends in Suburbia an extra reason to keep their children inside this All Saints Eve. To which we can only offer our condolences and a reminder that the Fog City is certainly a lovely place to visit in the Fall. Take a look at the ten best cities for trick-or-treating below, and click over to Zillow for more information. Bummed your town didn’t make the cut? Be sure to let us know in the comments.

Lindsay’s Mugshots Through The Years

Some people have yearbooks to look back through, others have Facebook albums. But Lindsay Lohan? She’s racking up quite a collection of mugshots. Lohan smiled pretty for Los Angeles police officers Wednesday when she took her fifth — yes, fifth — mugshot after her probation was revoked by Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner Why? Because, according to Sautner, she didn’t the follow the court’s orders to serve community service at a women’s shelter. Her bail was set at a whopping $100,000, which she paid, but not before being led from the courtroom in handcuffs. A new hearing to determine whether or not she should be sent back to jail is set for November 2. Here’s Lohan’s latest mugshot, and take a trip down memory lane below to see the rest.
