“The report points to its top marginal personal and corporate income tax rates”

I thought Nevada didn’t have an income tax.

I imagine hordes of Californians will be packing and heading off to enjoy the wonders of a ND winter. Not to mention it’s nightlife.

I don’t care if they move to Vegas and learn the Can Can, as long as they stay away from Arizona.

The problem with sunbelt states, you get the worst of the worst coming in looking for the free lunches. And both CA and FL are infested with illegals.

Virginia was on that list on a regular basis before the filth took power in Richmond.

yup, outside of Amazon, the only two areas of job growth in VA are government and retail.

Gee, I thought it was going to include CA and NY, based on Democrat smugness.

“Okay Californians, here’s your list of states to move to:”

Interesting list. I’d have to see how they decided what basis constitutes the economic outlook but in Northern Alabama, if you’re into automated manufacturing of any kind (CNC,CAD/CAM,or any support role) and have any kind of decent resume or even no resume you’ll be hired almost on the spot and be working 50+ hours per week at $25-$50 per hour. Been in this trade for 30 years and have never seen it so hot.

None of them have ocean beaches. Much more important than fiscal sanity.

Except that Memphis is as deadly as Detroit was in the Seventies and you cannot go there unarmed.
