Nevada Medical Marijuana Dispensary Application Approvals By County In 2015

According to the Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health, of the 199 medical marijuana dispensary applications submitted, only 55 (28%) were approved.

Two jurisdictions within Clark County – Las Vegas and unincorporated Clark County – between them issued 30 licenses of 55% of the total.

The high concentration of dispensaries in Las Vegas could make the city an important medical marijuana tourist attraction as Nevada recognizes medical marijuana permits issued in other states.
