›› North Dakota: Drug Climate

In North Dakota the primary concern for law enforcement and public health officials is the trafficking and use of methamphetamine. Currently, no single drug trafficking organizations dominates the distribution of meth.

• Cocaine
  Cocaine, while available in North Dakota, does not pose a significant threat. Methamphetamine, often called the poor man's cocaine, rivals cocaine as the stimulant drug of choice. Prices for cocaine range from $100 to $120 per gram.
• Heroin
  The use and distribution of heroin has not been a significant problem in North Dakota. Virtually all of the heroin encountered in North Dakota, mainly in Fargo, is black tar heroin from Mexico.
• Meth
  In North Dakota, the meth threat is a double battle. Not only are large quantities of meth produced by Mexican organizations based in California and Washington being transported into and distributed throughout North Dakota; the production of meth locally within the state has begun to increase.
• Club Drugs
  The threat of "Club Drugs" is extremely mild in North Dakota; indications have shown though that they are making their way into the Fargo area in small quantities.
• Marijuana
  Marijuana is one of the primary drugs of choice in North Dakota. Most of North Dakota's marijuana is supplied by Mexican drug organizations. There are a limited amount of individuals who cultivate their own marijuana crops..
