Who uses cannabis in Minnesota?

About one in four Minnesota adults (23%) reported consuming cannabis in the past month, with the sharpest divides appearing by income, politics, and place of birth, according to a Minnesota Community Survey of 1,172 adults conducted Sept. 25 to Nov. 6, 2025.

Our survey was conducted weeks after Minnesota's first state-licensed dispensaries opened in September 2025.

Cannabis isn’t just for young people. Our survey found that Minnesota adults report similar usage rates across age groups. Partisan identity and, in particular, income reveal far wider gaps.
