It's really hard, because sometimes the crowd guide can be accurate and sometimes i cant. That's why its just a guide.
I've always seen that leading up to thanksgiving it gets very busy. But it can vary every year i guess.

Depending on when Thanksgiving falls, the DIBB's When to Visit page says it's moderately busy the week before Thanksgiving week. The week that includes Thanksgiving is shown as very busy. That's because it is, based on previous data.

Here are the wait times from last year for Epcot and HS (MK and AK show a similar trend):

As you can see, last year it started to get busy from the Sunday before Thanksgiving until around the Saturday afterwards with peak wait time levels of at least 9/10 on Mon, Tues, Wed, Thur.

However, you're right that the week before Thanksgiving week is reasonably ok. That was from Mon 12th to Sat 17th and is the second full week in November. The DIBB's When to Visit guide shows the second week in Nov as "low" crowd level.
