Recent Census Bureau revisions
In addition to the report released by the Department of Finance, the U.S. Census Bureau (which measures on a fiscal calendar year versus DOF’s calendar year)
released updated information showing California’s population increasing as well — with several key revisions upwards:
- July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024, California’s population increased by more than 225,000 people.
- July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023: California’s population increased by more than 50,000 people. NOTE: This was revised up from the originally reported 75,000+ decrease.
- July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022: California’s population decreased by just 151 people. NOTE: This was revised up from the originally reported 100,000+ decrease.
Busting myths
Despite the common myth of a continually declining population, California has only saw a short period of population loss in its 174 year history — during the peak of the COVID pandemic, when it decreased by 379,544 people (which represents
about 1% decrease over those two years), according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
During the same period, from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022,
10 states saw larger population decreases, with Louisiana — led by a Republican Governor and legislature — seeing the largest percent decrease. And
13 states also saw population decreases from July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021.
California leads the way
Building on the second year of population growth, California leads the way in tourism spending, and was just announced as the fourth largest economy, moving up from fifth, in the world by the International Monetary Fund. California is also home to the most Fortune 500 companies and most Inc. 5000 companies. And, California leads the way nationally as the #1 state for new business starts, access to venture capital funding, manufacturing, high-tech, and agriculture.
Never mind the fact that the only worth while areas in Red States are their Blue cities that drive growth and innovation.
