Harsh winters and humid summers are quite miserable. People are less likely to want to go out, certain businesses are closed, specific activities are not possible, etc.

The amount of “nice days” you get in CA is much greater than elsewhere in the US.

Fair point. I would argue that Hawaii also falls into this category (and it seems reflected in their housing prices).

Hawaii is for sure more expensive than Cali. My pockets were hurting when my vacation ended.

Too distal, and there's not a thriving non-tourism industry to work in.

In terms of cost of living Hawaii is effectively an annex of California.
