Homes are still $1 Million+ EASILY in all the desirable places. Clearly SOMEONE is buying them. Youre tripping if you think the world’s wealthy wont continue to call California their home. LA will always have the beautiful/entertainer types and the Bay Area will always have the world’s smartest people and the Central Valley will produce America’s fruits/veggies/nuts. I don’t see this changing any time soon. You want the best of the best, you make your company in California. There is still TONS of land available all over the state for McMansions. And the car industry will still base their regulations off whatever California votes thanks to the huge car-culture.

[@stevenluo9516]

If you ever visit Texas and chill out in air conditioned rooms when it 40 degrees c outside you'll start to understand why.

[@TheLordOfNothing]

Yes and I hate it. Let me go on a rant. I grew up in the Georgia mountains when its population had sunk to its lowest after the industry closed down (80's). I loved it. Apart from a 4 year stint in Spalding County, Georgia, I remained there until I was 18. When I was born in the county I lived in (Gilmer) there were 11,110 people. By the time I graduated college there was about 23,456 people. Y'wanna know why? Northerners. They're an arrogant breed of Americans who can't seem to fix their own problems, instead, they move to another state just to ruin it and move along. And, when I lived in Spalding County, it was ALL rural. Today, it's still mostly rural, but unfortunately, houses and divisions are being popped up around the county because of suburban sprawl. Then people move into those houses and replace Southern culture with no culture. It's terrible. Plus, I can guarantee you that every "Georgian" or "North Carolinian" or "Texan" you speak to on the internet, they likely moved there from New York or California or Illinois when they were very little.
