This state has roughly the same population as Canada.
What's it like to live there?
>>55938508
Traffic, lots and lots of traffic. It has good weather throughout the year in most places and has a very diverse landscape from mountains, to desserts, to forest, to coastlines. It's the most normie state in the country and there's always something going on. Also the most hated state in the union.
>>55938508
It's nice. You can pick the type of environment you want to live in and find it somehwere in Cali. We have desert, beach, mountains (pic related), valley, rivers, forests, big cities, etc. Whenever I look up "[X Country] diaspora", the largest pop of them in the U.S. is almost always in California, so if you are learning a language or like a certain culture/cuisine you can go to the regions where most of those folks live and see what's up. You can find super ethnically mixed areas or little "enclaves" of whatever you want. Alot of non-Calfornians come here for Hollywood, so you'll always find amateur/undergound musicians/singers/rappers/filmmakers everywhere. We have alot of hippies obviously, and also alot of anarchistic punk kids. But then of course we have alot of farmers too (tend to be middle class or wealthy conservatives), and then the Silicon Valley tech types.
To me it just feels like a place with every kind of person so it's very exciting, and the nature is quite pretty as well. 10/10 would continue living in
>>55938508
It's shit
I hereby claim this thread for the glorious Bear Flag Republic. It's a very nice place to live. Dude, >>55939140, summed it up pretty nice.
Probably my favorite state in the U.S and im not even memeing.
Living here in SF is very nice desu.
It's true that homeless are a problem but they are easily avoidable if you know where not to go.
>a literal red star on the flag
so memes are real theyre all ML
>>55940128
How do you afford it?
It's cool.
There's lots of people, though.
But if you don't like that, there's also plenty of secluded areas.
Oh, and apparently it's communist because you cant have a mag release button, an ACOG AND a pistol grip on your AR.
Yeah, it's basically the killing fields of Cambodia over here.
>>55940153
This used to be the flag of California in 1836.
It was after winning independence from the Mexicans.
Texas did the same exact thing except their star was white.
It's filled with faggots

Inch by inch.
>tfw no independent California
>>55938850
It also has the best state flag imo.
>>55938508
pretty shit outside coastal and northern counties
t. lived here since birth
It is very nice, at least in my area of SD county.
Its nice, but the cost of living it too damn high, and it has some really terrible and bullshit gun laws. Like 10 round mag limits and such. So if you enjoy guns, it sucks.
SD is nice but anything north of it is shit.
Fellow Californians, did you know this is our state song?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q728t0krWSs
What do you think?
>>55943457
I listened to it once and all I remember is that it doesn't even rhyme and it sounds like a crappy, grade 2, band song for an elementary school.
>>55943457
Bad, tbqh. There's a better one here in my opinion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gT_dXW7HU3I.
>>55943531
Breddy good desu
What about san fran, is the bp game strong there
I moved to NYC after college for work.
I miss the fucking weather.
>You mean I need to wear more than a hoodie?
>Fuck
It's shit. Quite literally the worst state in the country
California is probably the best state to live in. Theres something for everyone.
>>55938508
Liberal illegal Mexican normies
I got laid tonight
4 kinds of biomes
NorthEast of sacramento, the state practically turns into the midwest with all its rednecks and forests. But its comfy as fuck, and the people are pretty nice. Theres some dumb as dirt rednecks and some batshit crazy hippies though, so it depends where you go
Mendicino is pretty neat too. Great coastline, great weather, great scenery
Central california sucks and you should avoid it at all costs
>>55942666
Soon
You really think California will live under a Trump presidency
>>55943884
except gun owners.
>>55938508
My cousin lives there lmao.
I like it. You can get any type of food you want without having to go far.
A lot of beautiful women from all over the world.
Good universities, good weather, not enough rain though. Too much traffic in LA area, sometimes want to move just to get away from the traffic and failed public transit system.
Too many people are transplants which makes it impossible to find good work, too many poor immigrants which makes it impossible to find bad work, so a lot of young people are unemployed.
Good craft beer all over.
I don't like the beach, really in the end most people who like the beach are transplants from places with no beach.
Music scene is too spread out, too many pencil dicked indie bands anyway
>>55944844
plenty of good hunting actually, don't fall for the no guns meme. Most people I know own a gun
>>55944945
muh 10 round magazines.
>>55944812
I wouldn't mind becoming our own country 2bh. We already have a bigger population than Scandinavia
I heard this states is the most degenerate on this country, true fact ?
>>55944984
what is this a video game? You're hunting not assaulting a military base
Cool in some places shit in others, it's easily the most beautiful state in the US. The bay area is literally tumblr the metropolitan area. Southern California, despite the memes is full of normal people and Mexican as shit. The center of California is one giant shithole full of white trash and cholos, it's like Alabama but with fewer black people and marginally less incest. Overall I would rate it 9/10, not as cool as the PNW but not bad.
>>55945022
We do have our fair share of degenerates but most people are normal. There are too many "DUDE WEED" people though.
>>55945060
There are more uses for guns than hunting. I like to take my gun to the range and just shoot without having to reload constantly.
>>55945128
How lazy are you? Do you want your life to just be an endless orgasm of NEETlessness
>>55945081
It's probably because the superstars live here, with pornography studios and SJW progressive shit stuff.
>>55945022
Maybe. I'll admit California has pockets of weird people, like anti-vaxxers, but it's nothing other states don't have. I think the reputation probably comes from how California tends to be more leftist than the rest of the country.
A funny tidbit, California is sometimes referred to as the "Land of Fruits and Nuts".
>>55938508
Dude we're actually going to have weed come november lmao

It looks like a place were I can be loud and uneducated as possible, ask for free stuff and my wife can shit out our 15 children :DDDD
>>55945666
>666
Satan knows
>>55944812
Yeah but we make like 1.9 trillion of the country's GDP. The union wont let us go without a fight.
I love SF's public transportation desu
I live in the IE and it's shit here
It's okay.
I live in Los Angeles and it's one of those cities that if you know where the cool shit is, you'll have a great time.
San Francisco has great architecture and it's really pretty, good weather too.
The inland areas are cool but in a weird way. NorCal I haven't been to, because I've only been here a few years.
>>55946269
SF's muni sucks
I vividly remember riding it with my roommate and them letting me us off with the doorway right in front of a parked car
The most famous state. The rest are jelly as fuck.
>>55947091
>liking flags with shitty letters
stay pleb.
If you like enjoying almost every type of biome/ecosystem conceivable, then you'd enjoy California.
Also its expensive as fuck
>tfw not coming to California just yet

Despite all the shit California gets, especially from 4chan, I still think its a great place.
>>55944009
>NE of Sac

NE of Sacramento and you get land with actual elevation fluctuation, the antithesis of the midwest
>>55938508
It's shit.
