EXCERPT:

According to Internal Revenue Service data, net migration from California to other states totaled 865,444 people from 2004 to 2010, the highest in the nation.

Think of it this way: The equivalent of the entire city of San Francisco packed up and left California in six years — and that’s with taxes lower than they will be under Proposition 30.

Where are the Californians going? For the most part, it’s to states with lower individual income taxes. Texas, a state with no income tax, leads as a destination, with a net inflow from California of 185,122 people from 2004 to 2010, the IRS data say. Next come Arizona (top income-tax rate of 4.5 percent), Nevada (no income tax), Oregon (11 percent) and Washington (no income tax). In the top 15 destination states for ex-Californians, the migration-weighted average of the highest marginal tax rate was just 3.9 percent.

Next question — who are remaining and replacing those leaving?
