This is not necessarily true. "Foreign immigration has dropped sharply, and we now lose more people to other states than we gain, with Texas the No. 1 destination for ex-Californians." |
"Our current growth, about 300,000 persons a year
Births minus deaths, dubbed “natural increase,” still account for more than two-thirds of California’s population growth, but as the gap narrows, it slows growth."
Thank you for posting. Some good data in there. I think context is important to review how staggering California's increase in population has been over the past 100 years. I know people who moved there, love it, but do talk about how expensive it is due to high population density in the coastal cities. It's an old joke "Nobody goes there, it's too crowded!"
I did mention Texas and Florida as the other destination states. California has problems, but among the 50 states I'd argue it is one of the more successful ones.
