christmas lights

Is it just my area or are less people decorating with xmas light's?  .

I really enjoy xmas displays and always loved going for walks in the cool evenings  with the dogs and looking at the lights . This year though so few have any up, only one really nice display of lights and animals out of the 2 suburbs i walk in and a couple with nice light displays.

 

I have no idea why it has dropped off so much 5 years ago at least a third of the houses had   at least some lights up . Perhaps  its the electrisity bill or vandalism. ...apparently people have had xmas displays vandalised iv read but I have lights all year on my fence,just solar,and no problems so it seems strange. I have a light up penguin and kangaroos and have seen people stoping to take photos so im not the only  one to enjoy a display 

 

Perhaps people are worried they will be seen as religious. ..I noticed in the window displays of the local St Vincent de paul and Smith family they have nice displays for   xmas  but not a single religious item like a nativity  or a Jesus  which seemed ironic and kind of sad ..
