Now not all of the legal states have the same set of rules, but legality in these states truly does show how far things have come. Depending on the state you're in you might find recreational dispensaries, (some big some small) cannabis cafes, bakeries, weed-friendly resorts/Airbnbs, and different types of social gathering "420" events.

Let's take a look at the top states for pot in 2023, five to one.

5. Oregon - This state is labeled as the "most affordable place to get high." Legalized back in 1998, wow!

4. Nevada - Oh, Las Vegas...Conventions, functions, parties, Mike Tyson. Weed is consumed and celebrated at a high Level in Sin City.

3. Illinois - This is a great description, "A Playground of Dispensaries" - Seeker How long before Illinois moves up to #1 on this list? It's coming. 

2. Colorado - Being the FIRST state to legalize pot, this place has weed restaurants, hotels, and private "weed clubs." What's the password?

1. California - This was the first state to legalize it for medical reasons, then not long after the "adult use" was sprinkled in. Smoking, edible, vapes, California loves the pot.
