Its slowing down recently but in 2021 and 2022 it was a very popular topic and many people did move from CA to TX.

And guess what happened in 23? A LOT of those people came RIGHT back to California lol

Looking at census data: https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/california-exodus-census-analysis-18509264.php
Well, lots of people move to Texas from all kinds of states. You could make an article about each one if you tried. Also, people are moving to California from Texas—and everywhere else. You could write an article about each of those places if you tried.
My point is, people who bleed blue don’t move to Texas unless they have to. And, with recent politics, Texas is a much harder pill to swallow for anyone left of center.
I’m sure the lefties in California would love to get rid of the righties. Maybe they could make a 1:1 trade, lefties for righties.
