Alabama Drug Facts and Statistics

Aside from its homegrown marijuana, Alabama's biggest drug threat is the wide reaching availability of illegal drugs stemming from outside the state. This problem is aggravated by the increase of manufacturers producing meth and other designer drugs locally.

Typical street drugs such as methamphetamines, marijuana and cocaine count for the largest percent of the illegal drugs being shipped in and out of Alabama. The southern part of the United States, including Texas and Mexico, and the local Mexican and African American drug trafficking organizations are responsible for most of this drug distribution and selling in Alabama.

These organized crime networks have far reaching influence in the State of Alabama, which is compounded by the the local motorcycle street gangs supplying methamphetamines via their own networks.

Meth Addiction in Alabama

With a state population of approximately 4.5 million people, the DEA has seized over 127 meth labs in 2008, and the production of Methaphetamines is on the rise in the State of Alabama as that year.

Methamphetamines is now the biggest drug threat to be found in the state of Alabama, and has been recognized as such since 2007. The problem presents itself under three different facets: the importation, the manufacture and the distribution. Many clandestine meth labs have been discovered, especially in the rural communities of Alabama. The bulk of the methamphetamine coming into Alabama is by Mexican drug traffickers in Mexico and Texas and distribution points in Atlanta, Georgia.

The effects of methamphetamine are devastating to say the least, for both the body and the mind of its abuser. Meth will often bring about a significant increase in their self-confidence, but the drug also takes away their judgment as far as what their body’s limits actually are. They will often attempt to do stuff that their body just cannot take.

In Alabama, there is a huge problem caused by both cocaine and crack cocaine addiction and abuse. The local drug and law authorities classify cocaine as its largest drug threat closely behind methamphetamine addiction.

This is also evident through the increasing numbers of arrivals in the cocaine rehabs in Alabama. Most of Alabama’s supply in cocaine comes from several different states, notably California, Atlanta and Miami. Cocaine is mostly distributed by African-Americans at a street level.

Bulk distribution is delivered mostly in powdered form, which is then used to produced crack. Regions mostly affected are in the northern and southern parts of Alabama, with sources stemming from Houston, Texas. The central part of the state receives most of its cocaine from Atlanta, Georgia.

Cocaine affects not only the users themselves, but also their families and friends. Cocaine is a highly addictive drug, therefore, addicts will do the most harmful and unlawful things to get their hands on it. Families and friends are often hurt emotionally by this type of behavior. They might feel confused and unstable if they are not well-informed on the subject of cocaine and its addiction.
