How much do you spend on booze?


Americans spent an average of $898 per adult on alcohol in 2024, with wide variation by state. Alaska tops the ranking, driven by geographic isolation, climate, and limited healthcare access.
Alcohol consumption patterns in the U.S. vary sharply depending on where people live. Cultural norms, climate, income levels, and access to services all shape how much residents spend on alcoholic beverages. This visualization maps alcohol spending per adult across all 50 states.
 

Alaska Leads by a Wide Margin. Alaska ranks first, with adults spending nearly $1,250 on alcohol in 2024. The state’s top position is often linked to isolation, harsh weather conditions, and limited access to healthcare and addiction services. Higher prices due to transportation costs also push up total spending.

  1. The alcohol tax in the State of Washington is so high I don't know how people can afford to drink. A Tesla usta be THE status symbol. Today a shopping cart fulla booze at Costco is THE status symbol.
