California Population Tops Thirty Eight Million (Assoc. Press December 17, 2008)

BS Ranch Perspective:

 

It has shown that the Population has grown over the last years to just over 38 Million people, however it is the Perspective of the People here at the BS Ranch to say that when the Governor of California starts to approve the Raising of Taxes, and all that the new President is applied to the People of California will flee, to other states in a massive wagon train the likes that were not seen since the early  to mid 1900's

 

After all the way that the Finance situation is going the person that is loosing is the person that is at the mercy of the credit card company!! THINK PEOPLE THINK!!!

SACRAMENTO—California's population has topped 38 million, according to a new report from the state Department of Finance.

The department's demographics unit estimates that California's population grew by nearly 436,000, or 1.16 percent, in the 12 months between July 1, 2007 and July 1, 2008, reaching 38.1 million.

That's an increase of nearly 4.3 million residents since the last national census in 2000.

Los Angeles remains the state's most populous county with more than 10 million residents, but Placer County east of Sacramento had the biggest percentage increase in population in the 12-month period. It grew by 2.6 percent.

Nineteen other counties also had higher growth rates than the state as a whole: Imperial, Riverside, Tulare, Kern, Sutter, Madera, Santa Clara, Yuba, Fresno, San Francisco, Merced, San Diego, Yolo, Kings, Contra Costa, San Mateo, Alameda, Napa and San Joaquin all grew by more than 1.16 percent.

Twenty-seven counties had lower rates of growth and 11 of them—Mariposa, Nevada, Mono, Trinity, Sierra, Alpine, Tuolumne, Inyo, Plumas, Amador and Lassen—actually lost population during the 12-month period, the report said.
