The thing that California has an advantage of compared to most other states is this — EXCELLENT WEATHER.
It is mostly temperate — not too hot and not too cold.
You don’t find that in Florida or Texas and that alone is probably worth a lot of money to people.
The only other state that competes with California in terms of weather is Hawaii.
Which just goes to show that it is possible to make a beautiful place terrible to live in with idiotic policies.
