My 10 yo o and his two friend went out tonight for about 2 hours. None of them have phones. Guess what, they were fine and had a blast, just like we did in 1986.

15?!

Your parents let you go out alone just one year before you could drive alone?! Wow.

For me it was the same as others, 10ish

Depends on the kid and the neighborhood. We won't be letting our DS go out by himself until he's in middle school.

DS did in 4th grade and DD in 5th grade (I'd have let her go in 4th but her friends' parents weren't comfortable with it yet)

My 14 year old goes with his 9 year old sibling, and they both want us to come with the dog, because it's a family thing. We meet other neighborhood families, with dogs, and we all talk and catch up.

10 for my son. They go in a large group and everyone has phones. No big deal

Really, 10? I didn't go out by myself until I was 15 and that was the last year I went.

At what age did you (or do you plan to) let your kids go trick or treating by themselves?
