Map: Where are Maryland’s medical marijuana dispensaries?

All but five of Maryland’s 24 jurisdictions have medical cannabis dispensaries licensed to operate within their borders, with the number generally rising with population. The two in Worcester County, home to Ocean City and where only about 50,000 people live year-round, are enough to give it the most per capita. While Maryland is a majority nonwhite state, only about four in 10 dispensaries are located in majority nonwhite areas, according to data from the most recent five-year American Community Survey. To look for dispensaries in a specific area, pan and zoom the map or click the magnifying glass in the bottom left and search for an address.

For the record

A previous version of this article incorrectly stated how many dispensaries there are in Calvert County. The Sun regrets the error.
