Article about California's population stabilizing and growing again. State grew by 67,100 people last year to 39.13 million, the highest figure since 2021.
There's an interesting divergence between the Northern and the Southern parts of the state. Calculating from the chart, Greater LA/SoCal region grew by around 35000 people to 18.42 million people, while the Bay Area still lost over -10000 people to 7.58 million people during 2023. It's a bit unusual since for the past 15-20 years the Bay Area/Norcal had a stronger economy and much faster growth than Greater LA/Socal, but it seems remote work hit the Bay Area much harder, especially since its economy is reliant on tech. Remains to be seen if this trend lasts, but interesting nonetheless.
