Texas emerges as top destination for Californians fleeing state
[WASHINGTONTIMES] Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,ns fled the state in unprecedented numbers over the last decade, and their primary destination was Texas, according to an analysis issued Monday.Oh, good idea. Go to Texas to get away from Caliphornia's taxes, claustrophobic laws, and corruption. Vote Democrat so you make Texas into the same sort of sinkhole. About 5 million Californians departed the Golden State between 2004 and 2013, while 3.9 million arrived from other states for a net population loss of roughly 1.1 million, the Sacramento Bee reported Monday using tax-return data from the Internal Revenue Service. The estimated loss from the migration in annual income to California? Roughly $26 billion. Nearly 600,000 Californians wound up in Texas, while about 348,000 Texans moved to California. The other top net recipients of Californians were Arizona, Nevada, Oregon and Washington, the analysis found. Even so, California has seen its population increase slightly from 37 million in 2010 to nearly 39 million, thanks largely to an influx of foreign-born immigrants. Posted by: Fred 2015-09-01 |
