meth usage stats.

[par excellence.]

I think this kind of topic is allowed...



I was wondering if anyone knew the stats. for meth use in the US right
now? Like, what areas of the country have the highest level of meth
use, and what areas follow?



Just curious.



Thanks in advance...

Not a whole lot of good recent info on this, but what I could find was that Hawaii has the highest percentage of meth users.



The western continental states (particuarlly southern California) are
definitely next. Use seems to be growing rapidly in the
Midwest. The Northeastern states apparently have the lowest
amount of meth users.



I read somewhere that the states with the most users checking into rehab were Idaho, Utah, and Iowa.

I wonder how southern states rank in meth use... I would assume </span>high
for some reason, but on here I never see many people talking about it
and saying they're from the southern states (Texas or Louisiana or
Georgia etc.) they all seem to be more from the coasts.

Here's a map showing the number of clandestine lab incidents of 2005.



These figures are surely proportional to the usage of meth as well although alot of the meth in the Southwestern US comes from Mexico I hear.
