The population of California on January 1, 2024, was estimated to be 39,128,186, according to the California Department of Finance. The population increased by 67,024 from 2023, the first rise in population since 2020. The Los Angeles Times attributed the increase to changes in domestic migration across states, a decrease in deaths to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels, and U.S. president Joe Biden's immigration policies.[1]
