With millions of illetgal immigrants destroying the culture and the cost of housing so high that most people will NEVER be able to purchase a house and 2 hour traffic jams, it is no wonder they are leaving. Too often though, they fail to see that it was their own stupid left wing ideas that caused the problems in Californian so they start tryiong to turn their adopted states into mini versions of California.

Here in the South we are inundated with people telling us how they did things up North. Do the Californians do the same thing to you?

Exactly. You can buy a bigger home in a safer neighborhood in other parts of this country for way, way, way less than you can in California. Apart from the climate, I don't see anything to keep me here.

"and the cost of housing so high that most people will NEVER be able to purchase a house "

We moved in 2000 from CA to Nevada to avoid state income taxes on a retiree and a neighborhood influx of Mexicans and crime.

We sold our house in Orange County (3br, 1b, 1096 sq.ft., .14 acre lot), bought in 1952 for $12,900, in 2000 for $185K. In NV we bought a house 3X larger on a golf course for $100K more. Our house today is worth more than $500K.

Today I went to www.zillow.com to look up the old homestead. It was sold in April, this year, for $555K. Three bedrooms, one bath, 60 yrs. old !!!
