      They've been reporting on it for quite a while and especially so in the last year. So have other news outlets. I think maybe what happens is that politics got more of people's attention in the last while so other news stories weren't noticed as much.

      California is not small business friendly, many of them moving to the low tax state. California is a place for the rich, not the middle to lower class, especially now that many are homeless because they cannot afford to live with the very high costs.
      I moved to NYC 3 years ago from Northern California, lived in Brooklyn and worked in Manhattan. The cost of living here is still very affordable than in California. Me and 2 of my friends rented 2 rooms and 1 bathroom for about 1800 per floor divided by 3 to 600 per person. Our salaries are around 130,000 per year.
      The cost of eating in broolyn is cheap, neighbors help each other ...
      Subway transportation was only 2.75 so we didn't have to buy a car to get around NY.
      A city that is very diverse, cool and friendly to the lower middle class.
      California is a beautiful state, the weather and nature are beautiful but the rules are very strict, taxation is very difficult to survive especially middle to lower.

    My wife and I left San Diego, CA on 24 Jun 2020. It took me a while to convince my wife to leave San Diego due to her family living there. But I was never near enough to my family and with both my parents and my brother passing away, I needed to be closer to my sister in Florida. My other reasoning for wanting to leave CA was political, 2A, and cost of living. Since moving to a much better state, we own a bigger house (2660sq ft), pay less for our house payment, no state taxes, no property taxes and we are doing a lot better now. There are two family members in San Diego that stated they want to move out of CA also.

To each their own but to me, retirement isn't just about not having to work, it's about having the freedom to do whatever you might reasonably want, such as travel, buying things, enjoying life, etc. I don't think I could retire with less than $3m in income-generating investments, maybe $2m at the very minimum.

      Depends on what a vacation is to you. Small coastal town in the north and a chain hotel, lots of walking, hole in the wall food for dinner and some groceries for the rest. It’s the cities and “attractions “ that strain a budget. What always seems to be pricy was my “day in the City,” which was literally me walking through various areas of SF. I budgeted for a lunch, the ferry, and some produce from the farmers market.
      A concert in the Bay Area isn’t noticeably higher than a concert in Denver, Austin, Portland, St Louis, Nashville, OKC.
      Fresh produce on average was a bit less than Denver.

      A large number of people were interviewed. Basically, it's the high cost of low quality property, taxes, and poor political policies. It's all too expensive. Unless you're on public assistance, politician, or in Hollywood, you can't afford to live in CA.

      Lots of Texans have moved up here to Oklahoma because Texas got too expensive. Problem is Oklahoma isn't exactly good paying job rich. The education here is terrible, Oklahoma companies don't like to or can't hire Oklahomans because there is a skilled labor and educated worker shortage.
      Myself and my husband moved to Oklahoma because companies recruited us and paid us 20k and 10k respectively to move here and work. We did take a pay cut, but because cost of living is lower we actually make more.
      California ruined California for its citizens with god awful policy. Lots of other states have done that to their citizens also.

    As a Californian, I'll summarize it for you why people are leaving the state:
    - Highest tax rates in the nation
    - Short supply of housing which is causing rent and house prices to skyrocket
    - Not enough high paying jobs to go around

      Why fix it? This will stop people moving there, which is a good thing. Maybe all the people trying to make it in all the industries there just stay put and try to change their backwards and retrograde communities in the Midwest, Southwest and the Mountains states. Stopping brain drain from the heartland should be a priority.

      how bad is it when you need 9 people to afford a house.....i live in Australia and was paying $570 a week for a 4 bed house, out of the $930 i took home working as an order picker, for nearly three years. Something is not adding up here. Are wages that bad? im paying $450 now, and i manage to save $200 a week, and apparently we have it hard cost of living wise.

      Wow! My son and I live in a 4 bed 3 bad home in San Diego and we do not share with anyone other than my other 2 child and 3 grandkids when they visit. I am a Californian and will stay here forever, you just have to work hard enough to go with the life style of this state. I lived in San Francisco too for 10 years and we lived in a luxury condo in the city, again you have to work hard to be able to have a great life in California! Maybe your uncle did not work hard enough .

    I am a 3rd generation SF Bay area native lived 60 years between San Francisco and San Jose, my family goes back to 1890s San Francisco, I grew up in Mountain View up until the 1970s the bay area it was idyllic lots of farm land, open space between towns, one could go to the city on weekend nights and walk around without fear, or drive to Santa Cruz on Friday night and get there before Saturday morning, drive to the Sierras and back in one day, etc. I personally witnessed the slow but steady destruction of the state at the hands of the democrat party and their liberal policie - it got to the point where your only choice was between two democrats. Pelosi's city is now a cesspool I have seen people drop trowsers and deficate in the doorways of businesses or shoot up right in front of city hall. The taxes, crowding, crime, homeless, traffic make it unlivable. Mountain View preserved one acre of farm land (Cuesta Park) to remind people of what it used to look like - today I would not go there it is infested with drug dealers and worse. The home I grew up in was purchased in 1955 for $11,500 (cost corrected today $132,250) now goes for $2,600,000. What family can afford to put down $1,000,000 and service a $1,600,000 loan (plus property taxes) for $13,000 per month for 30 years for a 900 sq.ft. 3 bdrm 1.5 bath 1950s house? After 60 years my family had enough and moved to the rural part of a cold "red" state. I miss the state of California with its natural beauty but not what the politicians have done to it. My only regret is in not having left sooner.
