For the first time, 50% of Americans say they have tried marijuana at one point, according to this year’s Gallup annual Consumption Habits survey. The new high point shows a slight increase from last year’s 49% and 2021’s 48% results.
The latest figure is also statistically higher than the 45% results from Gallup’s 2017 and 2019 surveys, showing a growing trend.
A separate question in the survey showed that one in six Americans (17%) currently use marijuana, just one percent higher than last year’s results and a new high in the poll’s trend since 2003. That amount has more than doubled since 2013, where only 7% of Americans said they consume cannabis.
