 Although methamphetamine abuse is mostly concentrated in the Midwest region of the United States, officials have noticed a huge trend of crystal meth addiction in Philadelphia and in Pittsburgh night clubs.
The majority of the methampheatmine used in Pennsylvania is supplied by local traffickers who manufacture or produce it themselves and by major trafficking organizations operating in California and Mexico.
Because Pennsylvania has many rural areas like the Pocono Mountains it has made it easy for small meth labs to produce methamphetamine. This is mostly due to the reduced risk of detection caused by the pungent odor of a laboratory as well as the likelihood of a lesser law enforcement presene. There are also more and more meth labs being seized anywhere from residences to motel rooms in cities and towns throughout Pennsylvania.
Officials have noted that methampehtamine is attractive to addicts because of its long lasting high (longer lasting than cocaine and crack) and because users can easily produce their own methamphetamine.
While only 0.1% of 6th gradres have reported abusing methampehtamine, 2.8% of 12th graders have reported abusing this man-made drug.
In 2007, the Federal government has seized 2.3 kilograms of methamphetamine. Additionally, in 2007, there were 11 meth lab incients in the state of Pennsylvania.
During 2006, 33.7% of the FEderally-sentenced defendants in Pennsylvania had committed a drug offense. 7.7% of those offenders had committed a meth-related crime.
During 2006, there were 69,803 admissions to a drug andor alcohol rehabilitation facility. Crystal meth addicts accounted for 340 of those admissions.
