Maps

[edit]

European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction has an interactive cannabis use map of Europe. One can select by recall period: last month, last year, or lifetime. Also by age: young adults (15–34), or adults (15–64). Hover over a country for the data.[13]

A non-interactive map is below.

Lifetime prevalence of cannabis use among all adults (aged 15 to 64 years old) in nationwide surveys among the general population. Data taken from European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (see Commons image page for latest sourcing info). See the table for what percent of an age range used cannabis by country.
