California lost ~187,000 residents in 2023 for its 7th straight annual decline, according to Reventure.
This brings the 7-year total up to 1.3 million people leaving California.
In 2022 alone, nearly 415,000 people left the state of California.
To put this in perspective, even in the 2008 financial crisis the biggest annual loss was just 125,000 residents.
Where are all of these people going?
Florida has gained 450,000 residents since the pandemic and Texas has gained 340,000.
Population dynamics are shifting.
