Over 500,000 Californians left the state in the two years after the pandemic began due to rising housing costs and crowded, crime-filled cities, according to a report.

Several social issues, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, led to hundreds of thousands of Californias moving elsewhere.Between July 2021 and July 2022, California lost roughly 211,000 people according to data from California’s Department of Finance.Los Angeles County — California’s largest county — lost around 160,000 in the last 12 months with most leaving for other states.AFP via Getty Images
