L.A.’s Millennial Population is Dwindling

There are two type’s of millenials in Los Angeles.  One, are the whining, crying, complaining type expecting the world on a platter.  The second type are the realists seeing the high taxes, bad laws, crazy government and a society based on theft—from taxpayers to those who violate the law.

The second type is leaving the disaster called Los Angeles and moving to a free State, like Texas or Arizona..  They understand complaining and whining is not productive.

“The generation that brought you safe spaces and adult coloring books is finally souring on the City of Angels, according to a new analysis of U.S. Census data. Despite a number of policy proposals aimed at courting the young, the rental site Apartment List says the city has seen a 7.4 percent decline in the number of residents between the ages of 18 and 35 over the last 10 years. The L.A. metro area’s millennial population, which now stands at more than 780,000, is experiencing the third worst decline in the nation, the analysis found.

Third worst in the nation is the bottom line.  LA is kicking out the middle class, leaving behind the very poor, the very rich and the illegal aliens.  This is not the life for a millennial, hence they are leaving as soon as they can.

L.A.’s Millennial Population is Dwindling

California City News, 11/28/2016

The generation that brought you safe spaces and adult coloring books is finally souring on the City of Angels, according to a new analysis of U.S. Census data. Despite a number of policy proposals aimed at courting the young, the rental site Apartment List says the city has seen a 7.4 percent decline in the number of residents between the ages of 18 and 35 over the last 10 years. The L.A. metro area’s millennial population, which now stands at more than 780,000, is experiencing the third worst decline in the nation, the analysis found.

Los Angeles just isn’t the attractive place it once was for America’s youth. You can thank those astronomical housing prices and a less-than-stellar job market for that.

“The high cost of living combined with stagnant incomes make L.A. a relatively unaffordable place for renters,” notes Apartment List data director Andrew Woo. “Fewer millennials are settling in L.A.” Instead, people in their 20’s and 30’s are heading for cities with more income growth and affordable housing. The big winners in this analysis include Houston and Austin, TX; Charlotte, NC; and Seattle, WA.
