Basically what Britain33 said: apart from the general stall in population growth in rural and Midwestern areas, Iowa experienced a lot of emigration, contributing to much of the rapid population growth in Southern California; Long Beach was known as ‘Iowa by the Sea’ and a massive Iowa Day celebration was held annually in Griffith Park.
I wonder if part of the reason why Iowa became surprisingly Democratic considering its demographics at the end of the 20th Century and beginning of the 21st is because lots of the right-wingers had left for SoCal in a self-selected manner.
