The California Tax Burden and Outmigration

What the California tax environment is and what the outmigration data shows

The Tax Environment

California's tax environment: the highest marginal income tax rate in the United States at 13.3 percent; a sales tax of 7.25 percent plus local additions; and the specific property tax limitations of Proposition 13 that produce the lowest property tax revenue as a share of home value of any comparable state. The combination produces the specific tax burden distribution that California politics has chosen.

The Outmigration Question

The outmigration question: California has experienced net domestic outmigration in recent years, with more people leaving to other states than arriving from other states. The causal attribution of the outmigration to the tax environment specifically -- as opposed to housing costs, which are higher than in the destination states; or weather, which is generally better in California; or the overall cost of living -- is the specific empirical question that the libertarian tax policy argument requires addressing honestly.
