a living in.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/onth eblock/detail?entry_id=87037&tsp=1

California is the 4th most difficult state to make a living in, and sadly, it's kinda showing. There is a large unemployment rate in California, and it is very expensive to live here. I thought CA was really nice and it still is but you see that there are plenty of roads that are outdated and schools are loosing a lot of budget and can hardly do anything. There is a lot of sadness in California.

Hawaii is the most difficult.

Texas is among the cheapest, and a lot of Californians are moving to Texas. You can get a house in California that's modest for a much cheaper price and get a much better job and the likeliness of you getting laid off is less.

Just so sad...

People used to move to California to make a life for themselves, it all started with the gold rush. Well, now people are realizing it's harder to make a life there that anywhere else. That's why a lot of people are moving to southern states.

My state, North Carolina, is experiencing a major population boom. We are now the 10th most populated state. Most people living here weren't even born here.

Hey! We don't want those latte drinking, tan getting hipsters in our state! We have had it with people coming into our land! First the Louisianians when Katrina hit now we have to deal with them hippies? I say we close down the borders and secede.

This. California's politicians are ruining my great state. It's not too late...It's never too late, but right now, it sucks to live here.

I blame the public for refusing to vote for plans that would raise taxes, while at the same time raising the state budget by demanding more public and social state-sponsored organizations.

Ah, so all those commercials that feature Arnold Schwarzeneggar showing Californians doing everything they want with their yachts and stuff was just propaganda? I should have known to expect that from a professional actor. At least he is going back to real acting. I just thought that California was a great place because it had a lot of landmarks. The easiest states to live in are probably the ones with the lowest populations, I bet.

Hmmm, Alabama is also an easy state to make a living in seeing as how stuff is cheap as dirt here. You can get a three bedroom and two bathroom home in the suburbs for only $60,000. I shit you not, I will provide links if you so desire.

Not a shitty house either. These are new and nice houses perfect for a family.

It may have a lot of nice things but when it comes to living in the suburbs like any other state there's gonna be some issues.

Fair warning, guys: we only have sunny weather when Californians come to visit. It's an insidious prank to trick you into moving here, possibly orchestrated by the Oregonians to keep you out of their state.

Seeing how my 3 dream cities to live in (if I had the money) are London, Vancouver and Seattle, I think I could handle it :P
