Well, basically the people who lived there couldn't pay the necessary taxes to keep the city afloat. It's a similar thing to Detroit, the difference being Detroit has dropped 50% of its population since the 50s while California has dropped 20% of its population since the 90s.

I think our weather is better. Other than that, game on.
