I've seen no proof from you because you refuse to post links to support your claim. In fact, the 10 poorest states and their median income in the U.S. are:
Mississippi - $65,156
West Virginia - $65,332
Arkansas - $69,357
New Mexico - $70,241
Alabama - $71,964
Kentucky - $72,318
Louisiana - $73,759
Oklahoma - $74,195
South Carolina - $76,390
Montana - $76,834
https://worldpopulationreview.com/state ... est-states

Wait a second! Do my eyes deceive me or is South Carolina, a welfare red state, the eighth poorest state?

According to the link I provided, California is the 46th poorest state unless you include the District of Columbia then California is still the 46th poorest state.

Easiest way to get rich in South Carolina is to bring a big company in for lots of taxpayer money and super-cheap labor - that’s what SC has to sell - the cheapest labor in the USA.

Tonight on Tuckyo Rose - more Kremlin talking points

“This war against Russia…” It’s like,”this war against Japan in Pearl Harbor”

Then there’s chyron calling Zelensky The Ukrainian Pimp. Disgusting.

Bullshit. I have friends that live in California that made no more than I did, and they all had nice houses. One think in California, is you have more wealth in your home.

BTW, not all housing in California is that high.

But you keep making shit up. Look, you’re the one that said it’s by median. And so we showed you the median. Now you want some other bullshit. Look, I’ve been to Mississippi. A lot. And I’ve been to California.

California is a wealthy state with lots of good jobs. There are almost NO good jobs in Mississippi. It’s a shithole. It’s a GOP shithole.

I'm guessing California has the most significant number of homes well in excess of $10M. Thus it will skew the average high. Not a true measure of home affordability.

Though, I must admit, this one seems overpriced.

(at $449,000,000 right now, right next to the $999,999,999 property)

Yep lots of rich people in California. That’s because lots of fortunes made in California, from Hollywood to Silicon Valley. But Glenn wants us to believe you’re better off living in Mississippi. He wants us to pretend that Mississippi is richer than California.

Not at all California is great if you are wealthy. However if you are just an average person making an average wage you are far better off in Mississippi.

Define "the best life." That term is so subjective any state in the union could claim to have "the best life."

I know nothing of the sort. If you have proven it many times then it should be easy for you to post a like where you originally posted it. Saying you've proven it many times doesn't make it true.

What is your source, other than your butt, for average income and home cost in California?

Price of homes depends upon location, location, location. Those along the coastal area are more expensive than those in the desert, central, or northern areas because they're more rural meaning fewer people want to live there. Here's my sources for average income and home prices in California.

Median income is about $84,000 in 2121. The source for this is the U.S. Census https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/ ... /INC110221

Median home price in California for 2021 is $573,200. Again, my source is the U.S. Census https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/ ... /HSG495221

So, now you've seen my figures and their sources it's time for you to put up or STFU.

As realtors say, home prices depend upon location, location, location. Where I live, the average home price is $1,500,000 according to Trulia. https://www.sandiegorealestatehunter.co ... ace-live/

My home is valued by Zillow at $1,220,000.

https://www.businessinsider.com/califor ... eau-2021-9
You conservative logic has blown another fuse. How can California be the poorest state if it has the highest poverty rate and the fifth highest income?

According to World Population Review, California's poverty rate is 12.07% and South Carolina's poverty rat is 13.79%.
https://worldpopulationreview.com/state ... e-by-state

So how is it that South Carolina has a higher poverty rate and lower income than California but, as you claim, California is the poorest state.

California is NOT the poorest state. That is simply not the case. You can look it up. That is either a misconception or a damn lie.

I don't know what the poorest state is. It always seems to depend on who's measuring it and what their metrics are. #6 has posted some figures that seem to be a good reflection of the true facts on the ground. Poverty of course is relative. In Beverly Hills, you're poor on $100k a year.

Lies, damnable lies, and statistics. Whoever came up with CA being the poorest state has looked at the wrong numbers, or they are simply BSing you to make a point. What it is, is a very expensive state. People in CA are for the most part not poor, but they have been to a certain extent impoverished by high costs.

To a certain extent, CA tends to attract working poor. The main reason why is that you don't freeze to death sleeping in the street or in a car at night. You might be shot for the shirt on your back, but you won't freeze.*

Funny, the most expensive cities always tend to be the ones people actually want to live in. New York is currently the most expensive city in the world, ahead of even London and Paris. Look it up. LA places in the top 10 or 20 depending on whose numbers you want to believe.

The cheapest cities are that way for a reason. No one wants to live there. Yes, you can pick up a house for what it would cost to re-do your driveway in LA, but then you have to live in it. Right now I'll bet you can get some incredible deals in East Palestine, OH, especially right by the tracks.

As I posted a couple of times, the key is location, location, location. In Southern California, the most desirable locations are along the Pacific Ocean and the amount of land between the ocean and the mountains is about 50 miles. Much of that land is already taken for homes, businesses, farms/ranches, roads/highways, etc. so whatever land is available is expensive.

Central California and Northern California are different from Southern California in that there is a lot of land but lower populations and most of the populations in these areas live in or near cities like Bakersfield, Fresno, San Francisco, San Jose, and Sacramento.

As for climate, California has perhaps the most diverse climates in the U.S. We have ocean beaches, mountains, deserts, forests, and farm land. In L.A. and San Diego, we can drive from the beach and be in the mountains within and hour and in the desert within 90 minutes.
The cheapest cities are that way for a reason. No one wants to live there. Yes, you can pick up a house for what it would cost to re-do your driveway in LA, but then you have to live in it. Right now I'll bet you can get some incredible deals in East Palestine, OH, especially right by the tracks.
In some instances, it's not that they don't want to live there but because they can't afford to move. Others move to less expensive cities because it's cheaper to live there. Often, where it's cheaper to live also means limited amenities like hospitals, entertainment, cultural events, etc... that larger cities have.

I'm sure in glenn's mind East Palestine, OH. is considered wealthy.
--
*Except this week, when blizzard warnings are still in effect.
Yep, first time since 1989 that the National Weather Bureau is issuing a blizzard warning, mainly for the mountains, for Southern California. We're due to get another atmospheric river event starting Saturday and lasting for a couple of days. I'm stocked up with food and have additional batteries for my electric lanterns in case the power goes out, which it rarely does. I've got two books from the library to read so even if the power goes out I'll still have something to do.

Our generator passed its self test and is reporting all systems go.

I've mentioned LA's vertical climate in another post regarding the blizzard warning. The chance of a blizzard is actually pretty good at the top of Mt. Lukens, but I know of no people up there. There are some radio towers up there, but the systems are automated. Later on, if there's trouble, the usual people will go up in 4WD trucks with all four wheels chained up, wearing hard hats and body armor in case of falling icicles.
