A federal study indicates that 42% of Coloradans between the ages of 18 and 25 have used marijuana in the past year. The National Survey on Drug Use and Health is the source for this information. The data comes from 2012 and 2013. The state with the highest percentage of marijuana users over age 12 was Rhode Island, followed by Colorado, Washington, Distict of Columbia, Oregon, Alaska, Vermont, Montana, Maine, and Massachusetts.
Although the Denver Post article tpday where I read this information did not provide specific numbers, it reported that use of alcohol and illicit drugs were also on the increase.
