This Revealing Chart Shows You Exactly What the Calif. Exodus Looks Like
Between municipal bankruptcies, rising taxes, the proposal of new taxes, and the promise of friendlier business climates in other states, the exodus of business leaders and U.S. residents from California is wholly unsurprising.
And this isn’t some new phenomenon. No, the Golden State has been bleeding residents for years, which is a shame considering all that the state is capable of.
“For most of its history, California has occupied a special place in the mind of most Americans. From the height of the Gold Rush through the 1980s, California’s warm weather and booming economy drew enterprising, educated and talented immigrants from across the country. California was the melting pot of America’s melting pot, leading all states in the number of residents who were born in other U.S. states,” the Washington Examiner’s Conn Carroll writes.
Sadly, as Carroll notes, that California does not exist anymore.
“According to a 2012 University of Southern California study on state demographics, you have to go back to the early 1990s to find a time when more Americans were moving to California than leaving it for other states,” he writes. “Thanks to high housing prices and a weak job market, California is now a net exporter of U.S. citizens to other states.”
And in case you’d like help visualizing some of this, we have you covered. The below chart from the U.S. Census Bureau perfectly illustrates Carroll’s point:

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 1:31pm“I’d like to share a revelation I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you Californians do not. You move to an area, You move to an area and you multiply… and multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Californians are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we … are the cure.” An adaptation to a quote from Agent Smith in The Matrix…

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 1:33pmGood point. I marvel at our illegal immigrants protesting with flags of the country they left, supposedly because it was a crap hole and then supporting pandering politicians who will turn this country into the same crap hole they left. Where to go next when that happens. Same with people fleeing and doing the same to other states, where you going to go next? Keep in mind we are in the clutches of the Democrat Party so no blaming the Republicans, they own it here and people should pay attention. Sadly, at one time in history the name Brown was respected but as usual the spoiled rich kids have sullied their nest.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 2:25pmI think there is some progressives that are moving to other states from cali….however, I know a lot of conservatives there that are just sick of what has happened to that beautiful state. They have done everything they could to make things right but there is simply too many liberals there. Most of them are just sick of it. They are moving to get their freedom back. Californians have helped arizona from going down the wrong path on many occasions by standing up at town hall meetings and telling the story of what happened to them. Don’t judge all of them by where they came from.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 2:44pm@Jerk… the Eastern Europeans I know are far more patriotic than the vast majority of American born liberals. I have a Polish friend who was a child under Soviet rule and fears for the future of freedom. Another friend, Romanian, came here with her mother and based on anecdotal stuff from her mother knows how lucky she is to be here. The point is I trust Eastern Europeans more than I trust any liberal. I’m a supplanted Californian who isn’t an infection because I tell anyone who will listen how we had better not follow the lead of a failing state… West Greece. I suspect Obamacare will help speed the collapse of California (and Illinois and New York) so that we can start fixing the problems.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 4:28pmJust to give you ignorant people a true lesson, 90% of those people leaving california are like me and my friends and family. We all hate democRATS and the polticians that control our state. We hate the fact that we cant even start a small business because the fee’s and licencing cost more than the actual suplies.
We dont vote for the commies that run the state only the illegal mexicans and the “hippies” as you say do. And guess what they out number us like flys on your dirty wifes ars. And those people who vote democrat will never leave and will never admit they ran our state into a welfar and mexico state.
And trust me i was in the military and have lived in probably 20 of our states (for the military and my job) and nothing comes close to california in beauty and friendliness in the people and the state. Only states that comes close are alaska, wyoming, montana and the dakota’s.
I havent been back to live in california in 2 years and problanly wont ever go back, but i would rather sit on a fireant hill covered in honey than go back to texas (esp san antonio aka little mexico) or florida. And all i ever here on here is how good those states are.
For a business texas is great but as far as beauty and people it is crap. Florida is semi good people surrounded by gangsters, snakes, alligators, swamp, crappy beaches and minimal beauty.

So the conversation with my wife turns to where do we move now – AZ, TX, WY?

I think I was there 6 months before I met a native Oklahoman. I never voted the entire time I was there.

People who leave CA because of it’s crappy anti-business anti-capitalism policies are likely not liberal. They are people and businesses who don’t think it’s a crime to make a profit and keep more of what they earn than what the government takes. These are the people you DO want in your state. I left CA in 2009 after running a small business there for 20 years for exactly these reasons – you are practically satan in the eyes of the CA government if you are a business owner there. Like a lot of other people, I had enough. But CA doesn’t care and you can show them charts, numbers, and facts all day long and their attitude is, ‘don’t let the door hit you on the a$$ on your way out.’ It’s that attitude which will eventually sink CA into a sea of red ink and they’re already well on their way.

LOL…funny but no…CA might not be that shining State it once was…but it still produces nearly 1/4 of all the food in the USA, other than beef, and it still accounts for about 13% of the US GDP…roughly $2T per year…
are you willing to have a foreign government that close to US soil? I know you were just using hyperbole but as CA goes, so goes the USA….Glenn talked about this nearly 2 years ago when he was warning of the PIGS collapse in Europe (Portugal, Ireland, Greece, Spain).
Not to mention CA is the 4th or 5th largest oil and natural gas producing State in the US…willing to see energy prices go up another 13%?? and if the eco-nazis would back off and let CA drill on the inner and outer continental shelf, CA would probably be #1 in oil and natural gas..
TX and ND are booming with fracking and the US is now the Saudi Arabia of natural gas (enough for over 100 years of world use).. add CA to that mix and the US could be energy independent in a decade or less…
We need to get the A-holes out of CA not get rid of CA…
Now if you want, we could send all the illegals and Progressives to China instead. Heck, I would pay for that in a heartbeat. I mean they have all those ghost cities that need people right?? LOL

Don’t forget that we gave you Ronald Reagan and I voted for him twice as president!
The problem with California is the same problem alot of states have – they are ruled by the super cities that goble up all the electoral votes. Until the gop splits the difference (like the democrats do) they will never win another election. Why should all the states electoral votes go to one candidate if they only receive 50.1% of the votes? Gop needs to split it!

Nope. The american community census is currently taking place.
Never seen anything like it.
Asks the following:
What time each person living @ the address comes and goes.
Incomes
Heritage
And much much more (48 questions).
I told them that I would only supply what is required by the constitution.
Total number of people living @ the address. “Thank you and good bye”
Have never in my life seen anything like that. Cant wait until they ask how many guns are in the household.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 12:55pmYES!!…one of the reasons I left wasn’t just because of the economy, Progressive government, or sorry state of education. It was the influx of illegals and the State’s utter REFUSAL to do anything about them.
3 million of the 12 million reported illegals in the US live in CA…400K of them are school age children that get free breakfast, lunch, childcare, medical care…they cost the State roughly $10B a year, just for the children…when I left CA 2 years ago, they were looking at a $15B deficit….2/3 of that is just used on illegal children…
I am all for immigration and improving your life but NOT on my dime!! Not when it takes my State from the BEST in the USA and 5th largest economy on Earth!! down to its present levels of default and ruin. The last 20 years have destroyed CA.
I could have stayed…my bills were getting paid, I was getting a small raise every year…my wife and I were part of that EVIL top 10% income earners in the USA..(that only means you make over $100K combined per year)..you know..the 10% of working Americans that account for nearly 50% of government revenue…heck..my wife’s job had the potential to double our income in the next 5 years…but I saw the writing on the wall with Gov. MoonBeam’s re-election after he destroyed the State in the late 70′s… TIME TO RUN AWAY!!…
I cry for my family and friends still there, some are clueless, some can’t afford to move away…

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 7:36pmThose Public Sector Union contracts negotiated by Moonbeams first go around as Governor are the largest driver of taxes and regs in California today….re electing Brown to fix a mess he himself created (years earlier) was likely the last straw for many in the state and now many of them are leaving. If the Feds have to bail out California watch for that money to have many onerous strings attached to it. How many more blue states on the ropes will it take for the Dem voters to realize that socialist policies do not, nor have they ever, worked ?

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 12:31pm“California was the melting pot of America’s melting pot” Now they’re just,”Pot”. California wanted to be sancuary for illegals and any other sub-human life forms on the planet. Now, they’re on their own. Other States should not allow entrance into their State, anyone wishing to flee California that carries the California virus. The State of California should be quarantined until an antibiotic can be invented. That particularly includes their Representatives.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 12:30pmMoved there in 2001, lived there until about a month ago(moved back to OK). There are a few conservatives that wont leave, and are trying to fight the good fight, but that state is a wash. A democratic super majority with a democratic governor. They will be the beacon of light for other progressive states passing any and every law they please. I feel sorry for conservatives living there as well as the ignorant who have no idea what kind of shape they are really in. CA = first state to go bankrupt – mark my words.

Posted on March 13, 2013 at 12:52pmExcuse me, but you forget that most of the people moving out from CA are the ones who moved there from other states to begin with. At the most one or two generations removed. Its the other states exporting their “displaced persons” to California that have ruined it from the inside. My grandparents, for example, moved to Cali from Oklahoma during the Depression. They were old school Democrats, and my Grandpa was an retired auto worker, and belonged to the AFL-CIO which also came west with the auto industry, the aircraft industry and a whole bunch of Democrats from Texas.
You just get back what you put into it, suckas …

Your statement ties in directly to my point that I was trying to make.
The come from states that they “F” up, and then move on to other states that aren’t like the ones they destroyed……….just to do it over again. Just like the family that moved to Wyoming recently. Wisely, the Wyoming representative told them if they didn’t like Wyoming policy to “hit the road”.

• Michigan population was 9,938,823 (2000 censes) and 9,883,640 (2010 censes)
• Between 2000 and 2010 the United States population grew by 9.7%
• 9,938,823 times 9.7% = 10,902,888, this is an estimate of what Michigan’s population should
have been in 2010.
• 10,902,888 minus 9,883,640 = 1,019,248 estimated number of people who left Michigan since the
