]]>1. California is the USA’s most populous state with almost 40,000,000 residents, more than Canada as of 2008. One of eight United States residents live here.
2. California is a “minority majority” state, with 58% of its population Asian, Hispanic, Native American or other groups. 26% of its people were born outside the U.S.
3. Only Alaska and Texas have more land than California.
4. Three out of the ten largest U. S. cities are in California: Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Jose.
5. California was the country’s top state in cash farm receipts in 2008, growing nearly half of all fruits, nuts, and vegetables. Almonds are the biggest export (in dollars), followed by dairy products, wine, table grapes, cotton, walnuts, pistachios and rice.
6. California contains the lowest and the highest points in the continental U. S. You can travel from 282 feet below sea level in Death Valley to 14,494-foot Mt. Whitney in less than a day.
7. California is home to the world’s largest tree (General Sherman Tree in Sequoia National Park) and the tallest (a coastal redwood whose identity is withheld).
8. Some California plants live a long time. The eastern Sierras’ Bristlecone pines are 4,600 years old, but a Mojave Desert creosote bush is among the world’s oldest living things at 43,000 years.
9. Invented in California: fortune cookies, Apple computers, theme parks (Disneyland), blue jeans and the Barbie doll
10. The Grizzly Bear State! California was formerly known as the Grizzly Bear State.
There’s a reason why California is called the sunshine state, it’s because the weather is near perfect all the time. The golden sun never seems to disappear over the California sky, always out to warm the day. It’s the reason you can go to the beach in the middle of January without freezing. In fact we had only 1 cloudy day in San Fransisco in our 2 weeks around California. Many reasons to visit this state in the United States of America, called California!
