Not surprising at all. LA, Dallas and Chicago are huge, AAA and AA global cities. Also within a 1000 miles of Denver. What isn't reflected are those career-driven professionals who will move again in 5 years as they continue climbing their respective corporate ladders. As a native of 61 years, in my experience Colorado is, has, and always will be transient. I suspect a similar trend may be found in Seattle, Portland and perhaps Phoenix. IMO.

They're trying to catch up in terms of liberalism?

I heard bad things about Inland Empire. One example is it's infested with gangs. White trash type people. High taxes.

California is pretty unique and there is no one state that is similar really, but if you were to split it up into north and south California, then North CA is most similar to Washington and South CA is most similar to Arizona IMO.
