It's very bad.
A few friends work with rehab centers and it's by far the worst they have ever seen.
I've been speaking to treatment center patients for years. 10 years ago about 40% were in there for opiates/heroin. the last class i spoke to, 24 of 26 were there because of opiates. 1 due to meth and 1 for alcohol. it's a huge problem

While those opiate ratios are higher than my experience with treatment centers, you're very much right about opiates being the main drug of choice. If I had to put numbers to my observations, I'd say about 75% opiates, 10% meth, 10% alcohol and benzos, 5% cocaine/crack.
