You weren't praying for rain last year during all the fires? I know I was. Literally praying and I'm not even religious. Rain is necessary.

Hah -- you are closer than you think. There are projections that show the most "livable" spot in the US given current global warming trends will be Michigan's UP. They won't need climate control. Sadly, CA is going to take it in the shorts.

Taken out of context. Scroll back.

Yeah, they caught me out front, just before the lock-down. So, they were canvassing the 'hoods.

Some 62,270 people have died of Covid-19 in California. Immigration policies that were already restrictive became even more so amid global lockdowns, resulting in what state officials estimated was a loss of 100,000 residents and roughly 53,000 fewer international students.

To be sure, migration to other states is a significant part of the story, as well. But as an analysis of census data by the Public Policy Institute of California found, the people who headed for another state largely haven’t been the wealthy, educated tech workers whose departures for Miami or Austin have been the cause of much hand-wringing.

Rather, the people moving into California tend to be more educated and wealthier than the people leaving, according to the analysis: From 2015 to 2019, California gained 74,500 working-age adults with a bachelor’s degree or more — and lost 465,500 working-age adults with less than a bachelor’s degree. Over the past decade, California actually gained almost 114,000 high-income (defined as making more than $138,750 a year) working-age adults.
