Maybe not. Maybe the leaving side has been what it's always been. Maybe there's no one moving in? And now the net is a loss?
Yes, could be for the same reason. Or it could be just the way things are. Given the USA's population is stagnent, perhaps CA isn't all that unique? Or is also an immigration issue (which "economic growth" is often used as a false proxy for).
Nonetheless, populations do decline. To make it sound like a "failing" - as if it were a business - is where I take issue.
