    It been fucking hillarious seeing people doubletalk California demographics.

    “Everybody keeps leaving California because the cost of rent and housing keeps going up!” which feels true but like…

    It has big “Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded” energy.

        If the headline was the only thing you read, yes. The article actually says it still has a net loss every year.

        It even says it still has a net 60k/year net loss to Texas alone.

        The article’s missing headline was driven from the single point that of the people moving to Califorinia, the largest percentage was from Texas.

                Californian retirees move all over the country. You hear people in Florida and Nashville, NC and Virginia, and Seattle, Portland, etc. all complain about the house wealthy Californians moving in and increasing the property prices. These people in Cali that won the house lottery are mostly retirement age and had paid off mortgages. They bitch about us in NY too. NY public employees who have retired and moved to low tax states. You would think they would value these people who are spending money in their communities.
