Latrobe's Suburbs Ranked by Drug Use: Which Neighborhoods Have the Highest Rates?

The number of people, per 1,000 individuals, who engage in the use of non-prescription, illicit drugs.

Drug use per 1,000 people data can be useful for property investors and those looking to move as it provides insight into the livability of a suburb. High drug use rates may indicate a higher crime rate and a less safe environment, which could impact property values and the desirability of a suburb. On the other hand, low drug use rates may indicate a safer and more family-friendly environment, which could make a suburb more attractive to potential buyers or renters. For example, families with children may prioritize living in a suburb with low drug use rates to ensure their safety and well-being. Similarly, property investors may use this data to identify suburbs with potential for growth and investment opportunities. Data from 2016
