Below is a complimentary note from our Cannabis analysts Howard Penney and Naman Daga. Click to get information on our Sector Pro Product Consumables Pro (which includes Cannabis research). |
In 1971, just 4% of US adults admitted to having tried marijuana. This number in 2021 has shot up to an astounding 49% up from 45% in 2017.
Thus, almost half of adults in the US have tried marijuana.
Still, though, only 12% of Americans admit to consistently consuming marijuana. As one may expect, younger Americans are more likely to use than older Americans.
Another astounding statistic is that nearly the same number of Americans admit to smoking as using marijuana.
These statistics just show how open Americans have become to the possibility of legalization. Now, it is up to government officials to act.
