The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Is California's population of millionaires staying static? Or are some of them relocating outside of the state?
Of course people relocate all the time, so some are certainly relocating out of the state. I suspect conservative news sources report every time one of the several hundred thousand millionaires chooses to relocate. OTOH, the population of millionaires in CA is very large and growing.
inequality.stanford.edu - Millionaire migration california impact top tax rates

This paper takes a look at several states, CA included. The migration (in and out) seems mostly unrelated to tax policy.

Most people greatly underestimate how skewed the income curve is. As an example for CA...
Although just 0.3 percent of California tax filers reported more than $1 million in the year it came into effect, these filers accounted for
more than 21 percent of all income in the state.
