The Exodus of Wealthy Californians: Why LA's Rich Are Fleeing to Las Vegas
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Daily Mail
Wealthy Californians are leaving their LA mansions in droves, fleeing to states with lower taxes and more affordable housing due to the recently enforced 'mansion tax' and issues such as rampant crime and the homelessness crisis. Celebrities like Hilary Swank, Mark Wahlberg, Matt Damon, and Joe Rogan have all left California for states like Colorado, Nevada, and Texas. The exodus is driven by the desire for more financial freedom and a better quality of life, with some citing the high cost of living and the worsening homelessness epidemic in Los Angeles as key factors in their decision to relocate.
