Why would so many people flee utopian bliss constructed by Leftists?
Funny that until the 70’s SF and LA had conservative roots and led the nation in population growth.

"Citing changes in work-life balance, opportunities for remote work and more people deciding to quit their jobs, the report found that droves of Californians are leaving for states like Texas, Virginia, Washington and Florida. California lost more than 352,000 residents between April 2020 and January 2022, according to California Department of Finance statistics.

And most people leaving are on the right and center, leaving California a darker blue of Leftist bliss. With them billions in tax revenue.

San Francisco and Los Angeles rank first and second in the country, respectively, for outbound moves as the cost of living and housing prices continue to balloon and homeowners flee to less expensive cities, according to a report from Redfin released this month."
 
Duh!

Democrat leadership fucks up everything.

In most other "Blue" states you can move out of the Democrat controlled big city shitholes and kinda be OK. However, states like California and New York and couple of others have extensive state wide Democrat leadership and the whole state is screwed.

We have majority Republican leadership and it ain't no Heaven in Missouri.
 
According to the storyline it is happening all over the US and the stories never mentions that LA and San Francisco lead the nation.

I have lived in Los Angeles since the 1940s.

Yes, a once conservative city has become a liberal one.

Yes, a once Caucasian majority city is becoming a Hispanic majority city.

An African American Congresswoman is likely to become the new mayor over a Caucasian "law and order" candidate.

Many people, including avowed liberals, are now concerned about rising crime. (A large percentage of people of two certain ethnicities -- no need to be specific -- are simply out of control.)

Yes, housing is a problem.

BUT the weather is wonderful. That's what attracted silent movie producers to come here.
 
"(California is) at a risk for becoming a state for very, very wealthy people and very, very low earners who receive state and local and federal aid that allows them to be able to live here,"


As usual, blue states are indeed for the elites, and the very poor. The people in the middle are the ones who get screwed.

Weather temperature may be wonderful, but the air is brown and filled with flying bullets.

It’s the Lefts goal to return to feudalism in which the nobility held all property and let the 99% pay to use what nobility allowed.

Housing is expensive in places people want to live. I have a 2 year old grandson who says things like Derp.

Totally...these tents go for about $800,000 each in San Francisco.

Housing is expensive in California because the Chinese are buying up West Coast property with reckless abandon.

I left NW Arkansas for the same reasons in 2001 and it has always been ran by Republicans. Congressman Womack-R was the mayor there.
