Who Has Tried Marijuana in America?


(Pew Research Center). Four-in-ten Americans say they have ever tried marijuana while 58% have not. Men are more likely than women to have tried marijuana -- nearly half (48%) of men have tried marijuana compared with only 31% of women.

There also are substantial age differences. About half (49%) of young people admit to having tried marijuana, as do 47% of those ages 30 to 49 and 42% of those ages 50 to 64. By comparison, only 11% of people age 65 and older say they have ever tried marijuana.

Fewer Republicans than Democrats and independents say they have ever tried marijuana. About a third (32%) of Republicans admit to having tried marijuana compared with 41% of Democrats and 44% of independents. Conservative Republicans are the least likely to report having tried marijuana (26%), compared with at least four-in-ten in all other partisan and ideological groups.
