People are leaving california due to housing costs and taxes.

Lol no, California may be losing some people, but it's still gaining a lot more. My hometown in the Bay Area continues to build more houses as well as the neighboring cities. It seems like every year there are more and more people on the road. As someone who actually lives in California I can assure you that we aren't losing population.

no, but you've gotta at least acknowledge there's a significant domestic net outmigration that's hindering its growth

In a state with almost 40 million people, 138,000 leaving in a year is not a significant amount.

uh idk if comparing the total population with a yearly rate makes sense
and it is significant the yearly population growth is less than 300,000, it could be a lot higher if net migration were even
