Prima facie proof CA STILL has the largest and most affluent middle class in America.
Thats another problem.
Incomes, etc have to be figured on a PPP (purchasing power parity) basis.
Again, as always with the left’s immigration deceptions, include the word ILLEGAL.
Over 54% of the population owns their own home.
Are the a bunch of states with better numbers?

Illegal aliens create wealth and a lifetime office for crooked politicians.
The new tax law is going to gut California. Right now California is sort of doing ok. They have a debt. But that debt is going to go through the roof, during the next recession. And it will go down hill fast, even though they have the ports, the movie business agriculture and silicon valley.
When I arrived in CA In January of 1952, San Diego had a Republican majority; LA was about 50/60 split between R and D. SF was marginally R; The CA legislature had a Republican majority; Orange County was lopsidedly Republican; a Republican was governor, and Ronald Reagan was waiting in the wings.
To answer the title…Because Marxists (like Muslims) consider lying a perfectly acceptable way of getting their way.
damnocrats
In raw numbers, CA may have the largest, most affluent middle class. But that ignores several things: First, as a percentage of the state population and in comparison to the upper and lower classes, where does CA stand when measured against other states?
And as for “affluent”, how affluent are they once you start taking cost-of-living into account? Are those homeowners really that affluent? If you leave out home valuation since buyers are scarce and most don’t have the ability to pay what the market portrays as home values, are any CA residents really flush with cash? Or do they just look “affluent” on paper because they own a house with an unrealistically high “value”?
The article refers to proportion, not absolute numbers.
If you were to look at absolute numbers, you would find that CA has the largest poverty class in the country. This goes hand-in-hand with the proportion.
For CA to be on a par with the national average, another 8% of the population would have to be lifted out of poverty. But CA politicians will do everything they can to grow the poverty class while driving out the middle class.
As I asked, don’t CA schools teach math or deductive reasoning any more?
It’s a real shame to see what has happened to CA. People often ask if I plan to return when I retire, and my answer is always no, because CA is insane now. The cost of living is sky-high, while the quality of life just keeps plummeting. And economic and social illiterates run Sacto.
Every illegal and their illegal kin, who settle in California bring zero skill and language abilities/sets to make a living in this high tech world of Capitalism.
So, they go on welfare and suck up $’s that used to go into roads, bridges and other infrastructure.
Public school standards are lowered to serve as free day care with free lunches and sometimes dinner for their hordes of children.
Then, they flood our universities to study social welfare/warfare courses that bring zero value to our state.
Their degrees become IUD’s, Instant Unemployment Degrees. Then they get jobs with the Feds/State/Counties/cities to spread their miserable outlook on life.
Drugged out America bums become the chosen ones versus those with developed skills to work and make a living in California.
Wowza...
Check this, looks like a 60 year old home in COMPTON for $450,000...lol.

I suppose Dr. Dre and Ice Cube could afford it.

California is two states within one boundary.
There is California, and there is the Democrat plantation.
