Get ready to spark one up, because here’s some news that will certainly get you on a high. According to a recent study, Los Angeles has ranked as the number 1 city to get stoned! (AKA one of the best places for stoners.) The study is by Lawn Starter who compared 300 of the biggest U.S. cities where recreational marijuana use is legal and based them on 6 categories — and our city came out on top. Let’s be blunt, are we surprised?
Here’s how Los Angeles ranked across the six categories:
- Number of Cannabis Dispensaries — 1st
- Number of Highly Rated Cannabis Dispensaries — 1st
- Number of Cannabis Delivery Services — 8th
- Number of Bud and Breakfasts — 2nd
- Number of Cannabis Tours — 1st
- Number of Fast Food Restaurants — 3rd
Now, how exactly did they come to this conclusion? Never mind those high thoughts, there are actual metrics. As mentioned, they compared cities where recreational marijuana use is legal and rated them among 17 metrics like availability of dispensaries, pot delivery services, and bud and breakfasts.
In case you’re curious, some of our California neighbors also ranked on the list under us:
- San Francisco — 2nd
- San Diego — 6th
- Sacramento — 8th
- Oakland — 9th
- Santa Ana — 10th
Of course, our standing comes as no surprise to most cannabis consumers, from iconic landmarks perfect to light one to the best dispensaries, our city really has it all. Read the full study here.
