I think that alot of people see on TV all these reality tv shows with beaches set in california, people see how nice this tv set looks, say I'm goin to california. I can name about 15 people in my grade that are going to move to california based on tv shows.
I see New york as a 2nd california in time.. long island is now a over populated mini california and in about 15 years it will be just as bad.
I cant wait to move the heck outa here!

Born here in California in 1947. Jobs are good, pay is too. 40 miles away is great mountain fishing, skiing, camping. 40 miles another way is awesome off-roading in the deserts, prospecting, etc. Still off in another direction is the great Pacific blue with gorgeous bikini clad women, sandy beaches, cool ocean breezes, and salt-air! The weather seldom freezes in the winter, and never really gets scorching hot near the coast.
I realize it's not for everyone, but that's why I love it here.

The S.F. bay area were housing went up in value 19% plus in a year alone and houses cost in the average $763K each. I'm third generation, 19% are native Kaliforian's and the rest transplants. What pisses me off is people who came to "Kalifornia" after WW 2 and complain about the state only after they have made their money after they leave, screw 'em! Without this state they would of had pennies not dollars profit in pocket. Look everywhere times and people have changed in this country, respect each state as I respect your state. "They call this progress?" Maybe not to many people in the USA in general and they are looking for the land of money in "Kalifornia" Thank you sierraben.Time marches on! Sorry to vent on my great state besides it's problems and people.

Thankyou everybody for your input on this subject. It has been educational,
though not entirely surprising.
Welcome back home (in whatever state that is).
