Everyone is leaving California. It’s been written again and again, so frequently since the COVID-19 pandemic, that it MUST be true. Even this publication is guilty of chronicling the state’s population fluctuations. Still, the outflow that occurred in 2020 and 2021 has largely rebounded, and data supports the fact that most of the movement happened within the Golden State itself.

During the last four years, Massachusetts has been overwhelmed by the migrant surge coming across the southern border. Last year, Gov. Maura Healey declared a state of emergency, citing the rapid increase in migrant families seeking shelter and the state’s inability to adequately accommodate them.
