United States Department of Justice (USDOJ), Methamphetamine Labs Found by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), USA, 2005

This data comes from the US Department of Justices National Clandestine Laboratory Register that is maintaned by the Drug Enforcement Agency. It can be found at [edited] The data set was created by taking the street addresses of meth labs that had been busted by the DEA then geocoding them. The street data was not particularly clean and we could only get a 67% match on addresses so this is only a sample of the data. The data does provide a fascinating look at where drug production activity occurs at a very local level.
