begining or End of October

Which would be better for a trip...Oct 2-7 or Oct 23-27? I have compared both airfare and hotel/ticket cost and can get within a couple hundred of the same price for either window.

We were there last year 10/21 -10/30. Weather was absolutely perfect - warm but comfortable during the day, cool at night, no humidity to speak of. Spotless skies, no rain in sight.
Crowds were decent -crowds, but not crazy. Would definitely go same time-frame again!! (In fact we will be in 2017)

My sisters were there the first part of the month - crowds were about the same but they had to deal with humidity and hotter temps.

I say go at the end.

Weather is usually much better at the end of the month. We were there from Oct 22-27 last year and had fantastic weather.

Honestly, I have done both of those time frames and both have been wonderful. Most October trips have been about the 2nd - 12th, in there somewhere. Last year's trip was 22nd to the 28th. It's a little warmer the beginning of the month, but I had great weather each trip.

Beginning of October is still HOT hot. Weather at end of October typically more comfortable after humidity breaks. I'm guessing crowds aren't much different.

Was there last year from Oct 24 to the 30th and as others have said the weather was great.
