What changes locally

The state law is only the first layer.

Consumers get broad possession and cultivation rights, but cities still control whether commercial marijuana businesses may operate locally. That makes Detroit materially different from municipalities that opted out.

City licensing, zoning, retailer verification, taxes and consumption options can change what legalization feels like on the ground. The city guides below keep the statewide rule visible while adding the local layer that actually affects a visit, a home grow or a job search.
