| Apr 5, 2018 at 17:42 | comment | added | user27618 | @Gangnus per the first diagram the west coast both received the greatest migration and lost the smallest migration to other regions. Likewise the northeast clumped with the Midwest lost the greatest population of any region. And again based on my research California wasn’t the only region targeted by the migration. There were several boom cities in several regions. California got about 12% of war contracts and accounted for 17% of wartime production and probable the largest beneficiary of wartime and post war migration. | |

| Apr 5, 2018 at 14:18 | comment | added | Gangnus | I have noticed ~+600th. in Californian cities on your diagram. But much greater migrations are there in different directions. And on the question diagram California is the ONLY serious acceptor. According to it, the answer of LangLangC looks much more serious, as explaining the data of the question, and not some absolutely different one. Your answer can be great, but it is not to that question. | |
| Apr 5, 2018 at 13:44 | comment | added | Gangnus | Your first diagram has no arrows from East to California, whereas the diagram of the question shows California as the main and practically the only one target of migrations. Only one of those diagrams can be true. | |

| Apr 4, 2018 at 14:55 | comment | added | user27618 | @Gangnus, I don't believe my diagrams contradict the diagram given with the question. Both during WWII and after WWII California grew, per my diagrams. During WWII LosAngles and San Diego were two of the largest growth cities in the country per my diagram. After WWII population movement continued and even accelerated per my diagram, but for somewhat different reasons. The Census diagram covering 1940-1950 encompasses both periods addressed in my answer and also concurs. My answer tries to address both general trends like California but also the dramatic east coast dip after the war. | |
| Apr 4, 2018 at 10:45 | comment | added | Gangnus | Your diagrams contradict to the diagram of the question. You cannot explain the diagram showing the most increase in California by a diagram showing NO increase in California. As your answer is based on the first, it (the answer) is irrelevant. It is only a simulation of answering | |
