Why do people like living in California?
California has the highest population of any U.S. state.  Many people like living there because of its relatively mild climate and easy access to National and State Parks.  Others enjoy living in California because it provides strong human rights protections to minority groups.  California is a very large state and has a varied geography.  As a result, people who want to live in coastal, forested, desert, or mountain environments can all find a location they like.
