New Zealands regional drugs

New Zealands regional drugs

Tuesday, 15th July 2008 12:00PM

A report by NZPA has been released identifying what the preferred drugs are for each region.

Drug users in New Zealand's three main centres have distinctly different tastes, a new survey has found.

Auckland's "drug of choice" is methamphetamine or 'P', Wellington's ecstasy, while Christchurch has a "whatever they can get" mentality.

The findings are reported in Massey University's third annual Illicit Drug Monitoring System report.

Cannabis was still the king of the country's drugs, with the highest use and availability of any illegal substance.

Does this affect the type of music we make and listen to in NZ? Let us know below
