Total Weed Consumption: 62.3 metric tons 

An estimated 1.6 million NYS adults aged 18 and older (12.8%) report using cannabis in the past 30 days, while an estimated 6% of adults consume cannabis daily or near daily. Legal cannabis is expected to generate 63,000 jobs across New York by 2025, according to an estimate by CannabizTeam, an industry executive search and staffing firm. The creation of new jobs would be a boon for New York City, which has lagged behind the rest of the country in recovering employment lost during the pandemic. 

New York is not only the city that consumes the most weed in America, but also the city with the highest weed consumption in the world
