I actually live in a fairly affluent neighborhood (in one of the less affluent houses) and yeah, some people do decorate for Thanksgiving, but nothing even close to either Halloween or Christmas.
Decorating for thanksgiving is decorating for thanksgiving. So you have seen it.
Personally I just do a fall decoration thing after summer. Nothing much, but it feels like I'm in the neighborhood I guess.
I have seen it. I'm just saying far few people do it. If everyone switched from Halloween decorations to Thanksgiving decorations to Christmas decorations, that would be cool, but for most houses, even the affluent ones, it's usually a couple of weeks of Halloween decorations, then nothing until after Thanksgiving when the Christmas lights go up. (Unless you're talking about just a "Happy Thanksgiving" flag or something.)
I mean I get it. Decorating over and over again is a pain in the ass. But that's why I'd love it if people left up their Halloween stuff until they started decorating for Christmas.
