Here is what Zillow says about the Trick-or-Treat-ability of Ballard
Ballard certainly knows how to pull out all the stops for Halloween. Downtown businesses pass out candy to hoards of little ghosts and goblins, and the community center hosts a Halloween carnival with a fright-fest of games and activities. Also, Ballard ranked high on our list for low crime and a high Walk Score.
