I *love* seeing the kids come to the door in their adorable costumes each Halloween.

I saw this blurb on a Yahoo slide show:

"In 2010, Belleville, Illinois, became the latest city to ban trick-or-treating for kids over 12. Teens can face fines from $100 to $1,000 for going door-to-door (although according to officials, more often than not, over-age Halloween-goers are just given a warning)."

I don't think that there is a specific age that is "too old", for me its all about the costume. I'll gladly give candy to teens and adults that have made the effort for a clever costume.
My daughter just turned 12 this year and this will be her last year collecting candy. I think she's actually okay with that but she also finds it a lot of fun to play Santa or make things fun for her brothers. We have a new baby coming in Nov so next year, I think I'll let her take on taking him to the door.
Anyway, my answer...12.
