Thread: California's Population Is Moving Out, Census Report Shows

. . . California continues to grow at the same modest rate it did last year for a pace that brought the state population to more than 37.8 million, according to the state Department of Finance's latest population estimates released Thursday.

California added 256,000 people between July 2011 and July 2012. That's a growth rate of 0.7 percent, which is about the same as last year's rate.

The state found the bulk of California's growth was driven by natural births. . .

Census Report Shows Wealthy Taxpaying Californians Leaving State in Droves & State Tax Revenues Diving, Looking for Obama Bailouts:

December 14, 2012 at 5:23pm
By Marc Chamot

I am considered a HATER by liberals, for bringing up those welfare issues about San Francisco's immigrants on this photo.

Liberals just don't get it, they don't get that taxing people to death, leave and take their money with them!

California's Population Is Moving Out, Census Report Shows “About 100,000 more people moved away from California in 2011 than relocated to the Golden State, according to the latest report from the U.S. Census Bureau.

The trend can be explained, in part, in monetary terms. Even in an economic boom, the cost of living in California has increased; prompting people to move out, and, in recent years, unemployment in the state has skyrocketed.

So, where are these former Californians going?

The Census Bureau calculates that the most popular destination is Texas (58,992), a state that is luring California companies. That’s followed by Arizona (49,635), Nevada (40,114), Washington (38,421) and Oregon (34,214).”

I posted this on TV Station NBC 4 in Southern California; they are running away from Sacramento TAX THIEVES! A liberal state that likes to throw money to illegal immigrants, thousands of illegal immigrants are birthing babies in California every day!

HUD section 8 housing to SENIOR foreign green card holders and refuses to collect from thousands of foreign CASH-ONLY businesses from top down, hefty government employees’ salaries, medical and pensions, instead they want to LOOT the Middle class and wealthy taxpayers to foot the bill to support these billion dollar programs...no way Jose!

On Breitbart.com; they reported that California Tax Revenue Plunges by 22% “State Controller John Chaing continues to uphold the California Great Seal Motto of “Eureka”, i.e., 'I have found it'. But what Chaing is finding as Controller is that California’s economy as measured by tax revenues is still tanking. Compared to last year, State tax collections for February shriveled by $1.2 billion or 22%.

The deterioration is more than double the shocking $535 million reported decline for last month. The cumulative fiscal year decline is $6.1 billion or down 11% versus this period in 2011.

While California Governor Brown promises strong economic growth is just around the corner, Chaing proves that the best way for Sacramento politicians to hurt the economy and thereby generate lower tax revenue, is to have the highest tax rates in the nation.

California politicians seem delusional in their continued delusion that high taxes have not savaged the State’s economy. Each month’s disappointment is written off as due to some one-time event.

The State Controller’s office did acknowledge that higher than normal tax refunds for February might have reduced the collection of some personal income taxes. Given that 2012 has an extra day in February for leap year, there might have been one day more of tax refunds sent out.

But the Controller’s report shows personal income tax collections fell by $325 million, or 16% versus last year. Furthermore, leap year would have added another day for retail sales and use tax collection, but those revenues also fell during February-by an even larger $813 million, 25% decline from 2011.

The more likely reason tax collections continue falling is that businesses and successful people are leaving California for the better tax rates available in more pro-business states.

Derisively referred to as “Taxifornia” by the independent Pacific Research Institute, California wins the booby prize for the highest personal income taxes in the nation and higher sales tax rates than all but four other states. Though Californians benefit from Proposition 13 restrictions on how much their property tax can increase in one year, the state still has the worst state tax burden in the U.S.

Spectrum Locations Consultants recorded 254 California companies moved some or all of their work and jobs out of state in 2011, 26% more than in 2010 and five times as many as in 2009.

According SLC President, Joe Vranich: the “top ten reasons companies are leaving California: 1) Poor rankings in surveys 2) More adversarial toward business 3) Uncontrollable public spending 4) Unfriendly business climate 5) Provable savings elsewhere 6) Most expensive business locations 7) Unfriendly legal environment for business Worst regulatory burden 9) Severe tax treatment 10) Unprecedented energy costs.

Vranich considers California the worst state in the nation to locate a business and Los Angeles is considered the worst city to start a business. Leaving Los Angeles for another surrounding county can save businesses 20% of costs. Leaving the state for Texas can save up to 40% of costs.

This probably explains why California lost 120,000 jobs last year and Texas gained 130,000 jobs.

California Governor Jerry Brown’s answer to the State’s failing economy and crumbling tax revenue is to place a $6 billion tax increase initiative on the ballot to support K-12 public schools. He promises to only “temporarily” raise personal income rates by 25% on any of the rich folk who haven’t already left.

Recent statewide poll show that support for the measure has fallen from 72% to 52% of likely voters since January. Democrats favor the tax increase by 71%, while Republicans are opposed it by 65%.

But independent voter support is now down to only 49% favoring versus 41% opposed as these swing voters begin to learn the initiative also raises their sales taxes, and the initiative will also be available to fund public safety realignment and freeing up dollars for "other spending commitments."

According to Chaing, California has plenty of “other spending commitments”:

“The State ended last fiscal year with a cash deficit of $8.2 billion. The combined current-year cash deficit stands at $21.6 billion. Those deficits are being covered with $15.2 billion of internal borrowing (temporary loans from special funds) and $6.4 billion of external borrowing.”

However, TV station NBC4 in Southern California removed my post; this is exactly why this country and California is going down the tubes, liberal Media cover-up realities that they don't want people to see reality, and to the Media and liberals the truths is considered hate! So California expected for Democrats take control of the U.S. House, so they could get those billions of dollars bailouts!!

A new Census Bureau report reveals that about 100,000 more people are leaving California than are coming to the state. Robert Kleinhenz, chief economist at the Los Angeles Economic Development Corporation says, "we're moving in the right direction" when it comes to adding jobs in California. When that happens, he says the migration numbers will likely turn around. Conan Nolan reports from Downtown LA for the NBC4 News at 5 p.m. on December 10, 2012.

About 100,000 more people moved away from California in 2011 than relocated to the Golden State, according to the latest report from the U.S. Census Bureau.

The trend can be explained, in part, in monetary terms. Even in an economic boom, the cost of living in California has increased, prompting people to move out, and, in recent years, unemployment in the state has skyrocketed.

So, where are these former Californians going?

The Census Bureau calculates that the most popular destination is Texas (58,992), a state that is luring California companies. That’s followed by Arizona (49,635), Nevada (40,114), Washington (38,421) and Oregon (34,214).

Although in smaller numbers, people are still relocating to the Golden State.

Texans make up the largest number of translates to California with 37,387 people, according to the report. That is followed by people from Washington (36,481), Nevada (36,159), Arizona (35,650), and New York (25,269).

Economic experts are optimistic that California’s economy has started picking up steam, and may reverse the movement out of the state.

“We expect over the next couple of years that we will add jobs,” said Robert Kleinhenz, chief economist with the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation. "This year, we’ve added jobs in California at a faster pace than in the nation as a whole. So, we are moving in right direction. As that happens, we’ll see the migration numbers turn around some."

A major facet of the state's economy, the agriculture industry has been affected by fewer undocumented immigrants crossing the border, deterred from coming to the U.S. because of high unemployment and a developing middle class in Mexico.

According to the Census Bureau, 468,428 people have moved to California from other states and 269,772 have moved to the state from other countries.

Modest growth sends California population to 37.8M

If one wants to see the future, it is California. It is now a majority-minority state — meaning whites no longer constitute the ethnic majority. The land of Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan is but a memory. The GOP has become a political rump. The Democrats, with their coalition of labor unions, environmentalists, homosexuals, single women, blacks and Hispanics, dominate state politics. If amnesty is passed, large swathes of America — Texas, Florida, Arizona, Nevada and Virginia — will resemble California ethnically, demographically and eventually, politically. The Republicans will be doomed to national minority status.

thanks for posting it.

Texas welcomes all constitutional, freedom loving Americans,...just DON'T bring that liberal California attitude with you! We've got enough problems of our own. By the way, if Open Carry laws scare you, one might reconsider moving here. Looks like it might be passed but time will tell. We can only hope.
