First year in our new house (2017) I was totally unprepared for the massive increase in visitors compared to our old house (despite similar situations - end of a cul-de-sac, on a vaguely similar sized estate.)
At our old house we would often get none, sometimes 1 or 2 visits by small groups. Here I must have seen 50-60 kids if not more.
By halfway through the evening, I was sending panic texts to my wife (who was out doing the rounds with our own daughter) and searching every nook and cranny of the house for spare sweets of any kind. I literally ran out of supplies with the very last kid who came (lucky sod got a full size chocolate bar because it was all I had left!)
We've been more prepared since. Worst case scenario - I have to eat all the leftovers over the following weeks.
Similar situation here too - generally accepted that if there's no lights, the kids don't visit.
