Decline Of Glamour-State Of California, USA

                                                                                                 It is the Golden State in America wherein High Tech Silicon Valley and the Glamourious Movie Industry of Hollywood are situated. It is gifted with beautiful green mountains along with valleys including a long Seashore of the Pacific Ocean. Besides, it has balance weather, making the state a more attractive place to stay. It is said that' When One tastes the orange juice of California will never think of leaving California'. 



                                                                                                California also has a history of the 'Gold Rush' when people from every corner of America were rushing to California for becoming rich. Such is the glory of such a prosperous California. However, glory and prosperity are attached to a big circle that brings up and down of anything. It seems California passing through a declining process for many reasons.



                                                                                                   The population of California is shrinking. In the year2022 population of the State further declined by 400000 than in the Year 2020. The population decline is due to migration from the state. The birth rate is less than the death rate.  It appears it may be due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Los Angeles County population has also fallen over the last four years. The state's total fertility rate has also fallen from 2.2 in the year 2006 to 1.5 in the year 2020. In the year 2010, the population of elder 65+was 11% but it will double in the year by 2030. It may change the demography of the state.



                                                                                                  It is no more the migrant magnet because of frequent Drought, Wildfires in the forest Areas, and Expensive Housing. The Rich old people are buying houses in other States. Besides that poor schooling also plays an effect on migration from the State. California has lost 3 million of its population between the years 2000 and 2020 accordingly.  27% of the population of California is foreign-born which is twice the national average. In short, a Culturally rich state has become now more expensive which is not comfortable for the people to stay in. Hence State like Texas and Arizona has become more attractive for people to stay.

                                This is how California is losing its glamour and attractions.
