Best States for Stoners in 2025

The Green Map of the U.S.

Not every state treats cannabis the same — but stoners everywhere are always looking for where they can vibe the easiest. Here’s how 2025 is shaping up:

🌿 States Stoners Dream About

• California → still the mecca of weed culture, from dispensaries to festivals.
• Colorado → mountain highs, legal highs, and everything in between.
• Oregon & Washington → progressive laws + legendary stoner communities.
• Michigan & Illinois → Midwest spots stepping up with big selections.
• Nevada → yes, you can grab gummies before hitting the Vegas Strip.

😬 States That Still Make It Hard

• Southern & Midwestern pockets → some areas still treat cannabis harshly, so stoners have to stick with hemp-based products (Delta-9 from hemp is still federally legal).
• Travel tip: Always check local hemp/cannabis rules before bringing your stash across state lines.

Hemp: The Loophole That Works Everywhere

Even in states where weed isn’t fully embraced, federally legal hemp products (like Delta-9 gummies under the Farm Bill) are fair game. That’s how stoners from Alabama to Alaska can still get relief without breaking the law.
