Supplementary notes: * This is a rough estimate based on Maine’s numbers. There is a registry, but only a small fraction of California patients are registered.
** Many families have migrated to Colorado so that patients would be allowed to use medical marijuana, which increases the per capita number of patients.

The following states did not yet have a registry open: Arkansas, Florida, Maryland, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, West Virginia.
