Rhode Island is the 7th most marijuana-friendly state in the United States, according to a new study by real estate website Estately.
The website ranked each site based on criteria including percentage of people reporting marijuana use in the previous month, average cost of high quality and low quality marijuana, cannabis-related Google searches, the legal status of the drug, and Facebook interest in marijuana-themed publications.
According to the study, marijuana enthusiasm is highest in the West and the Northeast. When it comes to Rhode Island, the site says, “Rhode Island would no doubt be ranked higher if the state’s enthusiasm wasn’t diluted by its enthusiasm for any and all illegal drugs. Still, there’s nothing little about Little Rhody’s enthusiasm for big green—10.8% report smoking in the previous month. Marijuana is A-OK provided it’s medicinally procured, but at prices that are only the 22nd cheapest in the country. Search histories will incriminate local cannabis enthusiasts—the 6th most related Google searches in the country.”
