Immigration Turns California Population Loss Around



by ELIZABETH WEIBEL 30 Apr 2024

California reported seeing the largest increase in its population since 2020 due to immigration, after years of experiencing a decline.

The state’s Department of Finance (DOF) released a report showing that as of January 1, 2024, California’s population was at 39,128, 162 people, adding that this was a “positive population growth.”

This represented a 0.17 percent increase of roughly 67,000 additional people to the state.

“For the first time since 2020, California has once again experienced positive population growth in 2023; driven by decreased mortality and a rebound in legal foreign immigration,” the California DOF said in a statement.

Officials from the California DOF attributed the growth to legal immigration, a reduction in COVID-19 deaths, and natural increases in population growth.

  and a rebound in legal foreign immigration,” the California DOF said in a statement.

LEGAL FOREIGN IMMIGRATION?  So being in the US illegally is legal in Mejifornia?

Maybe Cali will gain population in the short term. But eventually it will decline again.
Even illegals don't want to live in California, or New York.

They will eventually drift elsewhere to greener pastures and a better quality of life, just like everyone else has.
