How busy end of April vs. mid-March?

I was there Mar. 17 - 24. I thought it was quite crowded. DH and I would like to go during the Epcot Flower and Garden show. If we were to go around the third week of April, would the parks be less crowded? Or would the crowds be about the same? I won't be going again this year, but maybe next spring. I would also want to avoid Easter week and go after that.

We usually go for the 4th week of April(NH school vacation). The crowds are fine. Last time we were there, MK was a little crowded(45 mins for Dumbo & Peter Pan, the rest were fine).- MGM was great- walked on ToT a bunch of times- 10 min. wait for RnRC. Not so sure about the 3rd week, tho.

I saw the crowd chart in one of the guidebooks and it was reassuring.

I've been reading how crowded the park has been, but most schools have their spring breaks up through the week after Easter.

Very few are off the last two weeks of April and the crowd level dropped off significantly from the weeks before Easter.

I know I was there in 1998 the third week of April.

I remember going on Tower of Terror three times in a row before there were lines. And that was AFTER I had toured Animal Kingdom the same day.....

We're arriving on April 19th this year. I am getting so excited!!

We will be there April 23 - May 2, staying in a cabin at Fort Wilderness. We have never been this time of year before (usually go in January), so I am keeping my fingers crossed that the crowds won't be too bad. Looking forward to some warm Florida sunshine though!
