Yet another surprise is rocking the boat this December as we learn of yet another notable person taking part in the blue state exodus.
Nikki Sixx, the bassist and one of the founding members of the legendary hard rock band Motley Crue, ditched his home state of California for Wyoming. Guess what he had to say about it? He couldn’t be happier with his choice!
The rockstar and his wife, 38-year-old Courtney Sixx, started to explore the possibility of living in a rural location gradually; this idea picked up steam during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now, he and his family live in the idyllic town of Jackson Hole and Sixx says it is the perfect place to raise their daughter.
It seems that California is all fun, heroin, and games until a man has real problems to worry about!
To be fair, Nikki Sixx resided in California during a much better time for the deep blue state. People forget that there was once a time when California was a land of opportunity.
Where people weren’t burdened by high taxation, an insane cost of living, roving tent cities, and restrictive social policies.
Sixx isn’t the only high-profile person to leave California as of late. Take a look at these headlines outlining the California exodus:

Newsom claims the California Exodus is a "Fox News myth." It appears the LA Times has joined the conspiracy.
For 170 years our population grew. The Newsom governorship swiftly changed that. We're now on track to lose five seats in the House at the end of the decade. pic.twitter.com/YAFVrvX2pA

People Magazine broke the story:
“It just really clears our head and allows us to reset,” Sixx tells PEOPLE of he and his wife Courtney Sixx, 38, who share daughter Ruby, 4.
“We spend a lot of time outside. I mean, the whole point of being here is to really be outside whether you’re into skiing or fishing or hiking or being up on the lakes or snowmobiling.”
“And it’s very social here, so it’s fantastic for us,” the Mötley Crüe bass player shares of the friendly, like-minded town.
“I wake up and I’m like, ‘I can’t think of a place I’d rather be.’
Jenna Ellis took a stab at California and blue state politics: “At this rate, they’re going to lose another congressional seat but don’t think for a second that Democrats will learn their lesson and vote any different.”

The L.A. Times reports:
The state’s population declined by around 37,000 people from July 1, 2022, to July 1, 2023, or 0.1%.
The loss is minuscule compared with the more than 500,000 people the state lost from April 2020 to July 2022.
But it still represents the sixth-largest rate of loss of any state during that time span.
