California's net population growth is 600,000 per year, or 6 million per decade.
"This massive movement of human beings and an equally impressive production of babies does not fall evenly on California. While immigrants tend to concentrate in urban areas - also the locale of most births - there's an offsetting shift of population from those urban centers into suburban and even rural areas. Thus, the state's fastest-growing regions are on the urban periphery, especially counties in the interior valleys north and south... These two trends mean that the fundamental impacts of growth - such as traffic and school crowding - are being felt most heavily in the suburbs, but the urban centers are undergoing a demographic transformation as immigrants settle in and others pack up for the suburbs."
