"691,145 Californians left last year: What state did they go to?
New Census Bureau migration data for 2018 shows folks who leave the state are likely to end up west of the Mississippi River.
Here’s what my trusty spreadsheet tells me about where 691,145 Californians who left for other states now call home.
In raw terms of people moving, the top spot for Californians is Texas, which got 86,164 Californians in 2018. Next came Arizona (68,516), Washington (55,467), Nevada (50,707), and Oregon (43,058). All told, California had the most exits among the state and that wave grew by 4% in a year.
Texas also had the largest “net gain” from California. You know, more ins than outs: 48,354. Next was Arizona (34,846), Nevada (28,274), Oregon (19,008), and Washington (17,460)."
Let's hope they have learned their lesson and won't vote for the same liberal policies that destroyed California.
