So this California population data came out just recently. And for each county it has "Net Domestic Migration" information. Which is basically people moving in or out of a county. And from the looks of it about 75% of all California counties is losing domestic population. But are being replaced by immigration population. So after researching this, here are the top population gainers and losers for the last 3 years .

Still waiting for rents to go down... And waiting, and waiting, and waiting.

By the way, since when does 0.6% of a state's population constitute a "drove"?

They just don't give up do they?

And undoubtedly this quarter-million loss of persons were young adults and young families, i.e. upwardly mobile taxpayers. When you look at the massive financial advantages offered by low-tax, low-fee, low cost-of-living states, it is a fiscal and financial no-brainer. Moving out of California is a very wise move for middle and upper-middle class Californians.

This also corresponds with many businesses leaving California as well. The exodus will continue.

The middle class tax payers are leaving.

They are being replaced by poor and uneducated people that not only do not pay taxes, but draw state funds away from other needed projects.

A lot of people left because they bought homes they couldn't afford but sure lets put the blame it all on illegals. I am not saying illegals are a good thing but it's not as one sided as you would like it to be.

Perhaps they confused a drove with a dribble.

Not to mention net migration, as in the only amount that matters, is up not down. This is why the tards only want to look at domestic migration which is only half of the total migration. Sorry, but if more people are moving into a state than leaving in total numbers than you're just wrong.

You are the one that is wrong. The in migration out migration between states, has been in more people moving from the state than into it. The thing that has held up the population has been in migration from other countries. The census bureau says 54% of those are from Mexico and South America. Mostly poor, and many are illegal immigrants.

The other thing that has kept up the population is the birth rate exceeds the death rate, and over 50% newborns are Hispanic, which is the largest demographic group in California. The next biggest foreign in migration group is Asians, which have a higher birth rate than whites.

The results, is that as middle class well paid workers leave the state that also pay taxes, they are replaced by poor immigrants that do not pay taxes, and use more social services.

The out migration by middle class, is following the jobs that are leaving California, and the jobs being opened by California companies such as Apple, that are putting their major new facilities in other states. Example is the new Apple computer manufacturing plant moving to the U.S. costing a billion or more dollars and is being built in Texas not California.
