More than 250,000 people have joined the two Facebook groups “Leaving California” and “Life After California” and are looking to join the thousands fleeing the state or who have already left.

Since the first group was started in 2018, founder Terry Gilliam said, the groups grew steadily, but have recently been rapidly gaining more members.
