Weed in the D

The Future Marijuana retail is clearly a growth business. The numbers in this report have had to be revised upwards several times as new dispensaries opened, and more are expected to open in the near future. The potential financial benefits that come with regulating these businesses must be balanced against the sociological consequences of their trade, especially in such close proximity to schools. We present this report not to advocate for any particular policies, but to establish accurate numbers and locations of marijuana dispensaries throughout the city for the first time, helping to inform the public and policy makers.
