Commentary on Han & Shi: The presence of recreational cannabis dispensaries and storefront marketing activities in residential neighborhoods—recent evidence for associations with individual cannabis use.

The author comments on a study by B. Han and Y. Shi which investigated the connections of recreational cannabis dispensaries' (RCD) availability, storefront marketing activities with cannabis use in residential neighborhoods in California. They suggest issues to consider in future studies including identification of user profiles that are more responsive to RCD presence and marketing activities and inclusion of samples from other jurisdictions to account for socio-demographic differences.
