About
Presents actual 2022 pricing data for cannabis across the United States, compiled from public sources. This resource connects pricing information for high and medium-quality ounces with demographic and socioeconomic indicators like population statistics, income levels, and median rent for each state. A separate, linked file details the legal status of cannabis, covering medical legality, full legality, and decriminalisation status by state. This pairing of economic, demographic, and regulatory information offers a unique perspective on the US cannabis market.
