Why are Californians moving out of the state? CoreLogic, the analytic and financial services company, says that for every home buyer coming into California, another three are selling their homes, and moving out of the state. Separate reports released earlier this year by Beacon Economics, also noted that 625,000 more U.S. residents left California between 2007 and 2014 than moved into the state.

California’s housing market is one of the most expensive in the nation, with a median home price of $428,000 across the state. Selling prices have gone up 71% since 2011. Of the five priciest housing markets in the United States, four are in California, according to the latest data from NAR, the National Association of Realtors. Topping the list is in our own backyard, San Jose, with a median home price of $1 million.

Where are Californians moving to? Many are moving to Texas, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona and Washington. Favorite Baby Boomer choices are Nevada, Arizona, Idaho, Georgia, Texas or North Carolina where home prices are considerably lower. The homes being bought are generally bigger with larger land lots. Other attractions are lower commute times to work, lower utility bills in gas, electricity and garbage collection.
