California neighborhoods where cannabis retailers are located tend to have higher proportions of Hispanic and Black residents, and lower proportions of whites, while also being poorer than those areas without such retailers. That\u2019s according to a new study co-authored by researchers from the KSOM Department of Population and Public Health Sciences and USC Dornsife\u2019s Spatial Sciences Institute and published in the\u00a0September issue of Population and Public Health Sciences Reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The research shows that \u201cminority populations in California are disproportionately exposed to unlicensed cannabis retailers,\u201d the authors wrote. The study examined areas where both licensed and unlicensed retailers are located. Overall, neighborhoods served by any retailer represented 42% of the state\u2019s population.<\/p>\n

Recreational use of cannabis by adults became legal in California in 2016, and state and local licenses were issued starting in 2018. Only 20% of California cities allow retail sales, but according to the study\u2019s findings, a thriving black market exists where unlicensed cannabis retailers operate.<\/p>\n

The researchers identified 1,110 cannabis retailers in the state \u2014 448 licensed and 662 unlicensed. Relative to neighborhoods without retailers, neighborhoods with retailers had higher proportions of Hispanics, African Americans, and residents living below the poverty level. Compared with neighborhoods with only licensed retailers, neighborhoods with only unlicensed retailers had higher proportions of Hispanics and African Americans, and lower proportions of non-Hispanic whites. Neighborhoods with both licensed and unlicensed retailers had higher proportions of African Americans, Asian Americans, and people living in poverty, relative to neighborhoods with only licensed retailers.<\/a><\/p>\n

Unger, Vos and Steinberg<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

The paper noted that unincorporated areas lack enforcement capabilities to inspect stores for product quality, to ensure minors aren\u2019t being sold the products, and to close down retailers who violate the law, \u201cthereby potentially exacerbating health disparities within these communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The paper was co-written by Jennifer B. Unger, PhD, professor of preventive medicine; Robert O. Vos, PhD, assistant professor of spatial sciences; and Jane Steinberg, PhD, MPH, assistant professor in clinical preventive medicine.<\/p>\n

Other researchers were Daniel W. Soto, MPH; Christopher Rogers, MPH; Jasmine SiyuWu, BS (candidate); Kimberly Hardaway, BS; and Ada Y. LiSarain, MS, PhD (candidate).<\/p>\n
