There are awesome things about California, but a very real downside too. I guess if you're upper middle class to rich it's a great place to live.

I agree that California is awesome. It also is on an unsustainable trajectory. It has 1/3 of the nation's welfare recipients despite having 12% of the population. It's becoming increasingly a state of rich and poor with a rapidly declining middle class.
