California's "problems" are ALL related to it's too-high population density ... and guess what it's too-high population density is due to?
Here's some possible reasons:
1. Outstanding weather for whatever you want to do outside without having to bundle up.
2. Lots of jobs.
3. Vehicles that don't rust.
4. Gardens almost all year.
5. Warm beaches and cool ski areas at the same time a few hours from each other.
6. No winterizing of RVs.
7. No need for snow tires to go grocery shopping.
8. Fresh seafood caught close by.
9. Exercising outside all year round.
I lived here in California when we had all of the above WITHOUT a too-high population density .... and it was Utopia on Earth back then.
Reasons 1. through 9. still exist ... but just try to keep on providing those simultaneous with a too-high population. It then takes outside control to protect too many people from each other because humans always do to each other what humans always do to each other. The "market" can't do it because the market is controlled by humans and their greed.
I was raised in a low-population lousy winter weather state at the time ... and they can have it.
