♦ Word on the street, among hardcore addicts in Salisbury, N.C. and Rowan, is that heroin still rules as king in Salisbury and the County. Black tar heroin is said to be an easy score on the streets.
Meth is moving on up in popularity in Salisbury due to Meth’s easy availability and its recent growth in the city’s minority neighborhoods. In years past meth was considered “county”. Not so with meth labs sprouting up though out Salisbury and enterprising amateur chemists jumping into the market with one-pot shake n’ bake labs. It’s suspected that due to meth’s current rate of growth and easy availability that it will soon catch and surpass heroin. Both are extremely addicting.
Crack ranks 3rd and OxyContin comes in 4th in 2016.
1–Heroin
2–Meth
3–Crack
4–OxyContin (“hillbilly heroin”, a powerful form of highly addictive synthetic heroin)
