As far as crime, lets look at murder (the worst of crimes) per capita. Statistics have California about in the middle, then look at the states in the top positions. It's filled with a bunch of red states. Anyway, you're concentrating on the cost of rent. Rent is up everywhere, but obviously more in California because you started at a higher price in the first place. I have no intentions in moving. For people living here for decades (like me) it's dirt cheap. My home is paid in full and property taxes are Prop. 13 regulated. For expenses and taxes, it's about $500 a month for me, and often less. Some pundits keep talking about the $20 minimum wage. It didn't cause the world to come to an end. In-N-Out raised their prices about 5 or 10 cents. If that is killing you financially, eating less burgers is healthier. My employment is in the L.A. area and only a 2 1/2 mile commute. No traffic issues. Pay is good too. If you want to move, it's personal decision, but when I see news reports cherry-picking statistics, I look the other way.
