The numbers for CA would be much worse if the numbers only included citizens.
These numbers are not the whole story. Here’s the numbers on a population basis on the number leaving per 10,000 people in the population:
CA 27 per 10K people
NY 50 per 10K people
MI 87 per 10K people
IL 37 per 10K people
OH 31 per 10K people
Clearly the most disgusting state in which to live is New York, based on the rate of escape being the highest.
I slipped a line, NY has the highest rate of people moving out in the country.
