Why are Modoc and Lassen put with San Francisco and Monterrey? They have nothing in common with the other liberal coastal counties of the New California.

Mono should be in the new San Joaquin State, its isolated from the rest of Mojave.

Modoc and Lassen have much more in common with the northern coast (Mendocino and north) than with the Central Valley. (They'd be even better off in Oregon, but that wasn't an option.)

Geographically and demographically, Mono belongs in Mojave. In terms of which highways run through it, Mono belongs in San Joaquin. I ignored current highways. (The best place for Mono [and Inyo], is not one of these three Californias, but Nevada.)

Good point. I forgot that Modoc and Lassen aren't farm country like the counties to the South.

If you could cross state lines, you could include Washoe, NV with California, put Mono and Inyo with Nevada, and add Clark, NV to Mojave. That would leave 300,000 people in the remainder of Nevada. Not sure what to do about that.

We need to split Cali up into several states.

I know. I would really like it if Northern California from Fresno up split from SoCal from Fresno down.

You live in SoCal, right? Trust me, you don't want your state to break up. SoCal would be a disaster zone within a decade; it can't sustain itself economically or environmentally (water shortages).
I don't live in SoCal(wish I did) but I'd rather have california be several states so its votes would actually matter and outweigh the empty heartland somewhat.

[quote LA Time]
http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-population2may02,0,5953587.story?coll=la-home-headlines

...
The population of L.A. quietly surpassed the 4-million mark for the first time last year, the California Department of Finance announced Tuesday.

....
Angelenos probably don't need a demographer to tell them what they already know: that the city is growing more densely populated. But the numbers show that the city gained 37,758 residents last year, and as of Jan 1., 2007, its population was 4,018,080.

...
The L.A. numbers were part of a report released Tuesday that pegged the state's population at almost 37.7 million. That represents a growth of almost 1.3%, or 470,000, in 2006.
[/quote]
The Census Bureau has just released their estimates for cities (for July 1, 2006).

Their estimate is that LA is at 3,847 mn (a gain of just 2,000 over 2005).

For California it is 36.457 mn, an increase of 302,000 or 0.8%.

Oh definitely. I don't even care where the region goes as long as I don't have to deal with it anymore. California would be so much better if Orange County and the rest of stupid SoCal were not included. I seriously cannot express in words alone exactly how much I hate it whenever dumb people from Southern California come here and then proceed to bitch nonstop about how terrible everything about Northern California is compared to whatever snobbish cesspool they hail from. I wouldn't touch SoCal with a three hundred mile long pole.

Actually, I would advocate removing Central Valley also (lots of idiots there), except that they occasionally have something to contribute and I don't generally deal with those sorts of people around here.

And we should have just taken Canada with us.  We definitely should have during the War of 1812.

Except that you were unable to win said war.
