If you ever want to know what it feels like to be surrounded by hundreds of weed dispensaries, Los Angeles is where you need to be. As one of the most cannabis-friendly cities in the United States, Los Angeles has a deeply rooted cannabis culture infused into the city’s community and lifestyle. The first medical dispensaries were established across California in 1996, and since then, Los Angeles dispensaries have been an integral influence in the city’s art, music, and creative culture.
With the legalization of recreational marijuana dispensaries in 2016, many medical dispensaries in Los Angeles now cater to both medical patients and recreational customers. As a result, the city’s dispensaries offer a wide range of cannabis products, from traditional flower strains to edibles, concentrates, topicals, and more. Because dispensaries have been around for so long in California, Los Angeles has set a high bar for what it means to be a top dispensary. Dispensaries in the city are known for their professionalism, knowledgeable staff, and wide selection of products.
