The marijuana market has nearly tripled over the last three years as legalization sweeps the nation, according to a new report by Coresight Research.
What they found: Of the 1,017 survey respondents in the 41 states (plus, the District of Columbia) where marijuana is now legal in some form, 22% said they had purchased it for recreational or medicinal purposes over the last 12 months.
- Among them, the average person spent $85 per month — with 1 in 4 spending less than $30 and 9% spending $200 or more.
- That makes the market worth about $64.3 billion annually, up from $21.5 billion in 2019, Coresight estimated.
Zoom in: About two-thirds of users said they’ve increased their marijuana usage since it was legalized.
- Of those users, 57% said they had smoked it, 46% had consumed it via food and 42% had vaped it.
