California's recent migration trend represents a significant decline, with 422,075 newcomers last year marking its lowest influx in decades, influenced by high living costs and political concerns.
The 2023 inflow translated to just 1.09% of California's population, illustrating its lowest attraction rate among states, showcasing a stark contrast to the national average of 2.28%.
Despite California's cultural allure, it's facing a demographic challenge, as its expensive living conditions and political climate deter many potential movers, pushing it to the bottom of attraction rates.
While California's population growth is stalling, states like Maryland are seeing increases, highlighting a shifting preference among residents towards regions with more favorable living conditions.
