As someone who lived there for the first 8 years of my life, and has visited there periodically since I would describe California as being an odd mix of starry eyed Progressivism, Anglo-Saxon prudery, Okie hillbilly and tribal native Mexican culture, with a small input of old New York money in Hollywood and San Francisco. Mostly though it seems like a mix of Anglo-Saxon, Scots-Irish and northern Mexican culture.

Suburbia and city magnets, the politics all lead to the same housing development and concrete wasteland.

This is very simple to answer because all 38 million of us are the same and easy to group and label.

Like the Midwest but with an ocean view and some palm trees. Everything else is a myth.

Diverse in people and culture and of course some uncultured people.
