A new Axios-Ipsos poll shows parents are feeling more comfortable letting their kids go trick-or-treating again.

According to the poll, parents now believe it's less risky to let kids hit the neighborhood this year.

When asked, 68% say they see little or no risk in trick-or-treating – 17% more than those who were willing to take part in the Halloween tradition last year.

The director of the CDC has said trick-or-treating should be safe for kids as long as they are in small groups.
