Marijuana may be legal in New York State but there are more than 100 places where you won't be able to buy it.

Recreational marijuana use became legal on March 31 in the state of New York. However, local officials have until the end of the year to opt-out of allowing retail sales in their cities, towns, or villages. Cazenovia was among the first to ban sales in the village and to date over 100 towns and villages have opted out of marijuana dispensaries and cannabis cafes.

You can still use marijuana. You just won't be able to buy it anywhere officials have opted out. The law allows for the possession of up to three ounces of marijuana and up to 24 grams of cannabis concentrate.

You can even grow your own right in your backyard. Three mature and three immature plants are allowed per adult. There is a maximum of six mature and six immature plants in a household.
