(Worthy News) – California’s population fell by more than 182,000 people in 2020, marking the first year-over-year loss ever recorded for the nation’s most populous state.
State officials announced Friday that California’s population dipped 0.46% to just under 39.5 million people from January 2020 to January 2021.
The news comes one week after the US Census Bureau announced a paltry population growth for the state, resulting in it losing a congressional seat for the first time.
