The ABCD Cannabis Price Index also reported that Washington, D.C., is the most expensive place to purchase weed in the United States. A gram costs an average of $18.08 in D.C. compared to $10.76 in New York.
However, it is more expensive to buy pot in 10 cities worldwide than it is in our nation’s capital.[2]
