  1. yep like the rest of America

  2. you gotta get out of the city more. It's much nicer outside of the major cities. Hundreds of miles of coastline.

  3.  @Ggg496  remember the good old days in California, when you couldn't see the mountains above Los Angeles for all the smog... and the crack epidemic, remember LA in the 80s?

  4.  @user-kh1zo4sc9l  I can't even imagine how bad it is in Georgia or Louisiana or Florida or Texas.... lot of dumpsterfires out there

  5.  @robertmartinjr.4537  exactly. There are still huge lines to buy homes and rent apartments across most of the state. If there weren't, they wouldn't be selling homes up and down the coast for millions of dollars.

  6.  @Manskilz  yep, the state has cleaned up a lot since then. I grew up in LA county in the 80s and remember how dirty everything was, and the smog. It's much nicer now

  7. Fine with me! If ENOUGH people leave, the value of real estate and cost to rent an apartment or buy a house will drop a bit. The apartment I'm currently in, I beat out 40 other applicants for this place.

  8.  @regaininglife9084  I can afford it. My rent on a two bedroom apartment is about a thousand dollars a month. 3 work days and the month's rent is paid. If you can't afford that, get a better job

  9.  @RandomRabbit007  exactly. I love that oak woodland zone north of San Francisco, and the volcanic uplands in the northeast part of the state. And the deserts. And the redwood coast and Monterey. No complaint here if a few million residents left, the lines to buy homes would get a bit shorter
    3
  10. 40 million people in this state, it's ok if a few leave
    3
  11.  @teri03  the losers are leaving. That leaves the winners
    3
  12. Right, like the southern states don't have federal emergencies every single year
    2
  13. A lot. Highest GDP in the nation, nearly twice that of Texas. Get to work already
    2
  14.  @reneeupdike2220  no joke, I beat out 40 applicants to get my current apartment. They're building new apartment complexes and houses but not fast enough to meet demand.
    2
  15.  @RandomRabbit007  seriously. They're right, we do need to close the border, end the "sanctuary state" and get Newsome out of office... but still, its paradise out here where I live, you couldn't pay me to leave
    2
  16.  @axidhaus  no stores? Sorry you lost me there. California isn't lazy, it's by far the most economically productive state in America. The GDP last year was about 50% greater than that of Texas. The GDP of the city of San Francisco alone is about the same as that of Utah.

  17. along with the rest of America

  18.  @nitroneonicman  you should pull up Zillow and look at the prices of homes outside of Los Angeles or San Francisco. You might be surprised

  19.  @nitroneonicman  friend of mine just bought a 3 bedroom mid century house 5 minutes from the beach for less than a quarter million dollars.
    2
  20.  @nitroneonicman  Yeah, but then you'd have to live in Pittsburgh or Kansas. There's a reason property in places like that is cheaper. I pay about $1000 a month for a 2-bedroom apartment 5 minutes from the beach. If you can't afford that, then yeah I guess you gotta live in Pittsburgh

  21.  @safeandeffectivelol  not at all, those are just the only two places you mentioned. To be fair there are AMAZING places to live all over this country, it's the greatest nation on earth. California is just one of many great states.... and I always encourage conservatives to stay here and vote Newsome out.

  22.  @nitroneonicman  I live on the coast about 200 miles north of San Francisco. When I moved in here, in 2017 the rent was $800 a month. Now its $1020. You don't believe me, that's your problem.
    2
  23.  @marcellabrowning315  well, I'd argue that housing costs involve a wide variety of factors, beyond the two you mentioned. Thanks though

  24.  @BrianDunncustomart  fantastic use of the English language. You must be a reader

  25.  @youtubename2001  sorry, but I don't believe you

  26.  @youtubename2001  I have a two bedroom apartment. Rent is about a thousand dollars a month. Not many Hondurans around here

  27. You must have been living in the worst neighborhood in the state. There are neither dust blowers nor smog where I live
    1
  28.  @youtubename2001  ah. Yeah I'm not a big fan of the whole Riverside-Bakersfield-Fresno-Stockton zone myself either. Imagine it before it was drained, when the valley was a vast marsh teeming with elk and wildlife... Out on the redwood coast, its paradise here. Pretty far from a 3rd world vibe. Check out Ferndale

  29.  @Scocia  I love my morning commute, through redwood national and state parks. Eel River canyon is a nice drive any time of year

  30. Trump says climate change is a Chinese hoax. Meanwhile the tuna are moving north as the ocean warms up. Catching whoppers offshore of Oregon now

  31. Totally, this is the first full moon ever in California

  32.  @regaininglife9084  the thousand dollars I pay in rent every month is not much of a price to pay to live 5 minutes from the beach in paradise. Highest temperature here this year so far has been 68 degrees.
    1
  33.  @regaininglife9084  I haven't worked more than half time in years. Only need about 15 to 20 hours a week to pay the bills. Good luck out there with the heat waves and tornadoes and all the other stuff you have to deal with
    1
  34.  @Scocia  really, how much does a 3 bedroom house overlooking the ocean cost there?
    1
  35.  @Scocia  my rent for a 2 bedroom apartment 5 minutes from the beach is about a thousand dollars a month. I wonder what a similar duplex apartment would cost where you live

  36.  @axidhaus  imagine living in a state in which the entire year's worth of economic production is less than that of the city of San Francisco. get to work, already
    1
  37.  @axidhaus  oh, that sounds sad.
    1
  38.  @axidhaus  north end.
    1
  39.  @axidhaus  seems like the LA area is nicer now than in the 90s, just has a lot more homeless. Neighborhoods are nicer though, than I remember . Less blight, more landscaping

  40.  @DwightStJohn-w1l  so they're quitters
    1
  41.  @DwightStJohn-w1l  so you're saying they're quitters. I wonder how many times they've had to move
    1
  42.  @Chainyanker007  Yeah I remember the smog in the LA area in the 80s, it was much worse than it is now, and my dad says that in the 50s it was much worse than that. I'd love the area, if about 75% of the people left.... just too crowded down there but it sure is nice near the coast. I grew up in Palos Verdes, south of LA.

  43.  @Chainyanker007  yep my folks still live in PV, their house is in that price range. Incredible view from that hill.

  44. You must have been living in the worst neighborhood in the state. Gotta leave the city more often. I bet you're happy now that you've moved to Houston or Atlanta or wherever you are
    1
  45. it's fine with me, there are still horrendously long lines to buy houses or rent apartments out here. If there weren't, they wouldn't be selling houses for millions of dollars up and down the coast. Look at the real estate market.

  46.  @teri03  fire is part of the ecology of the western United States. Read a book

  47.  @nitroneonicman  where do you live now?

  48. Hahaha grapes. We have the highest GDP in the nation, nearly twice that of Texas. Go flip a burger

  49. Both

  50.  @nitroneonicman  my rent on a 2 bedroom duplex apartment, 5 minutes from the beach, is around a thousand dollars a month. What does one cost where you live?
