California’s long-running “net outmigration” data shows us the exits outnumbered new residents from other states by 341,866 in 2022.Migration is by no means a static number. Last year, California saw a 65,797 improvement in its in-vs.-out gap compared with 2021. And the direction of those interstate relocations continues to be a geographic jigsaw puzzle.Census Bureau stats show 2022’s largest net outflow was to Texas, which gained 60,163 more Californians than what the Lone Star State lost to the Golden State. Arizona was next at 46,745. Then came Nevada at 26,653.Conversely, New Jersey was the No. 1 net contributor to California’s population with 6,619 more exits than arrivals followed by Illinois at 3,986 and Nebraska at 1,512.So, what’s driving these mixed movements? My trusty spreadsheet tells me it’s all about the jobs.Weighing the factorsMy math compared interstate migration patterns against six scorecards created for my “Leaving...
