You don't live in a city? That's the problem with weed. It is forced on everyone. The smoke and smell gets everywhere. And while people who live in states where its legal are extremely quick to point out the law allows it, they're even quicker at "forgetting" the restriction in those laws (eg: states who make it illegal in public similar to open carry laws)

From my experience here (different city, obviously) it's everywhere. Popular parks are a cloud of weed smoke. God helps you if you have a deck and your neighbor is a pothead. People smoking near the doors to the subway (leaning on the non-smoking sign), so in winter the smoke gets all sucked in inside and in the worse cases it's bad enough to make you gag (fortunately that only happened to me once). Cigarette is worse, but the range is very short. Weed's range is super far, and the smell sticks to everything.

It's awful. The law as written in my state (where recreational weed is legal) is pretty good. The problem is everyone ignores it (as expected: they only heard "its legal!")
