California cities aren't appealing to everyone. Numerous places in the Golden
State were among the top 14 metros where more people moved out than moved in,
adjusted by population.

Business Insider looked at negative net domestic migration estimates for US
metropolitan statistical areas for the period of July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023.
Negative net domestic migration means they had more people fleeing these
metropolitan statistical areas for another US location than people in the US
moving in. We adjusted those estimates by each metro's population as of July 1,
2022, to get migration rates per 1,000 residents.

Before adjusting for population size, negative net domestic migration stood out
the most in the greater New York City metro area — with a value of -238,494. Los
Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, California, came next, with a value of -154,634, and
then Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, Illinois-Indiana, with a value of -71,310.

Los Angeles continued to be notable when adjusting metro areas by their
population size. Six of the 14 metros that had the biggest negative net domestic
migration rates per 1,000 people were California metros. That includes San
Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara and San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont — as well as Los
Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim.
