Teen marijuana use remains low, less than half the level of the 1970s and 1980s, however it has increased in recent years. An estimated 109,000 Ohio youths, ages 12 to 17, smoked marijuana at least once the previous year, up almost 5 percent from a year earlier.
An estimated 24 millions Americans, ages 12 or older, used marijuana in 2016, according to the survey. About one in five young adults, ages 18 to 25, used marijuana nationwide in 2016. That’s more than 20 percent of young adults, or 7.2 million.
