The state’s population is estimated at 38,940,231 people as of Jan. 1, 2023, the Department of Finance reported.
Over the same period, statewide housing growth increased to 0.85% — its highest level since 2008.
The report found that all but 12 of the state’s counties lost population, with Lake County, at a loss of 0.9%, being among the top 10 counties for the largest amount of lost population.
The report shows Lake County’s population declining over the year from 67,421 to 66,800.
The city of Clearlake’s population declined from 16,545 to 16,364, or 1.1%, while the city of Lakeport saw a 0.8% decrease, from 5,008 to 4,967 residents. The population of the balance of the county dropped from 45,868 to 45,469, or a 0.9% reduction.
California added 123,350 housing units on net, including 20,683 accessory dwelling Units — or ADUs — to bring total housing in the state to 14,707,698 units.
In Lake County, housing units saw a slight increase of 0.2 countywide, increasing from 34,294 to 34,354 units.
In Clearlake units increased by just one, 7,623 to 7,624, for a 0% increase. Lakeport increased from 2,501 to 2,508, or 0.3%, while the remainder of the county saw a 0.2% increase, from 24,170 to 24,222 units.
New construction represents 116,683 housing units with 63,423 single family housing units, 51,787 multifamily housing units, and 1,473 mobile homes.
The 0.35% population decline for 2022, roughly 138,400 persons, marks a slowdown compared to the recent decline during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Between 2021 and 2022, California’s population decreased 0.53% or 207,800 persons, due mainly to sharp declines in natural increase and foreign immigration.
For 2022, natural increase — the net amount of births minus deaths — increased from 87,400 in 2021 to 106,900 in 2022. Births decreased slightly from 420,800 in 2021 to 418,800 in 2022, while deaths declined gradually from 333,300 persons in 2021 to 311,900 persons in 2022, respectively.
Foreign immigration nearly tripled in 2022 compared to the prior year, with a net gain of 90,300 persons in 2022 compared to 31,300 in 2021. While foreign immigration to California has nearly returned to pre-pandemic levels, natural increase has not rebounded. Total births remain low due to fertility declines; while deaths have eased gradually from their pandemic peak, they remain elevated.
With slower domestic in-migration and increased domestic out-migration likely the result of work-from-home changes, declines in net domestic migration offset the population gains from natural increase and international migration.
The report contains preliminary year-over-year January 2023 and revised January 2021 and January 2022 population data for California cities, counties, and the state.
These estimates are based on information through Jan. 1, 2023.
Significant changes over the year include:
• Population growth slowed but remained positive in the interior counties of the Central Valley and the Inland Empire, while most counties saw declines, including every coastal county except San Benito (0.2%).
• Only two counties had growth above a half of a percent: Madera (0.6%) and Yuba (0.6%), due to housing gains. The next largest in percentage growth were San Joaquin (0.4%), Merced (0.4%) and Imperial (0.4%) counties.
• Forty-six of the state’s fifty-eight counties lost population. The 10 largest percentage decreases were: Lassen (-4.3%), Del Norte (-1.3%), Plumas (-1.2%), Santa Cruz (-1.0%), Marin (-1.0%), Tehama (-1.0%), Napa (-1.0 %), Lake (-0.9%), Monterey (-0.8%) and Los Angeles (-0.8%).
• The state’s three most populous counties all experienced population loss: Los Angeles declined by 73,293 persons (-0.75%), San Diego by 5,680 persons (-0.2%) and Orange by 14,782 persons (-0.5%).
• The top five cities where housing production drove population growth include: Paradise (24.1%) in Butte County, Lathrop (11.1%) in San Joaquin County, Duarte (6.6%) in Los Angeles County, Wheatland (4.6%) in Yuba County and Shafter (4.3%) in Kern County.
County housing highlights include:
• Yuba had the highest housing growth (2.3%) of all counties, followed by: Placer, Butte, Madera, San Joaquin, Yolo, Alameda, San Benito, Merced and Imperial.
• Twelve counties gained housing at or above 1.0%.
• One county lost housing: Mariposa due to a wildfire in 2022.
• Ranked by net housing gains, Los Angeles (19,556), San Diego (7,034), Oakland (4,005), San Francisco (2,823), and unincorporated Riverside County (2,106) added the most housing units in 2022.
• Larger densely populated urban areas built most of the multifamily housing throughout the state. Los Angeles led the state gaining 12,074 multifamily units, comprising 61.7% of their net housing growth, followed by San Diego (4,568 for 64.9%), Oakland (3,880 for 96.9%), and San Francisco (2,573 for 91.1%).
• Conversely, single family housing is more likely to be built farther inland in typically more suburban cities. Cities with a high proportion of single family growth include: Roseville (100% single family), Santa Clarita (100% single family), Fresno (91.7% single family), and Irvine (71% single family).
Also of note in the report:
• 356 cities lost population, while 125 gained population and one had no change.
• Of the 10 largest cities in California, only three gained population: Sacramento had the largest percentage gain in population (0.2%, or 1,203) followed by Bakersfield (0.2%, or 882) and Fresno (0.1%, or 599).
• Accessory dwelling unit production increased by 60.6%, with the state adding 20,638 ADUs in 2022.
• Group quarters represent 2.4% (926,000) of the total state population. This population includes those living in college dormitories (269,000) and in correctional facilities (168,000). In 2022, California’s group quarters population increased by 11,000 people or 1.2%. The college dormitory population grew by 16,000 (6.2%). Correctional facilities declined in population in 2022 by 4,200 people (-2.5%) across federal, state and local facilities. As college dormitory populations continue to return to a post-pandemic normal, several jurisdictions saw significant gains in population due to this population. The city of Arcata in Humboldt County grew by 4.1% due to a 45.1% increase at Cal Poly Humboldt. The city of Marina in Monterey County grew by 2.5% due to a 12.6% increase at California State University at Monterey Bay.
State prisons are generally located in remote areas; as a result, increases or decreases can account for significant changes in their respective area populations. For example, prison declines led to population decreases in Susanville (-9.5%) in Lassen County, Calipatria (-5.6%) in Imperial County, and Crescent City (-4.4%) in Del Norte County.
The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 16, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport.

In an untimed item, the board will consider a resolution electing not to list supporters and opponents for county city, district, and school measures on future county ballots.
The report from Registrar of Voters Maria Valadez explains that Assembly Bill 1416, passed by the State Legislature in 2022 with an effective date of Jan. 1, 2023, adds a requirement for statewide measures that a listing of the supporters and opponents of measures be listed on the ballot label or that a similar description be provided on the ballot.
“The bill gives counties the option of printing the list of supporters and opponents of local measures on the ballot,” Valadez said.
“Opting into the additional printing will result in cost increases for ballot production, printing, and postage. Including the supporters and opponents will increase the length of the ballot and potentially the number of ballot cards,” she wrote. “In addition, it could increase the possibility for electioneering and promotion of candidates who may be on the ballot and are also signers of the measure.”
Valadez said the requirement also would put the Registrar of Voters Office in the position of accepting or denying abbreviations of supporters/opponents that may not be clear due to the maximum character limit — 125 characters each — and in turn may result in challenges to perceived unfair determinations.
She said Elections Code section 9170 allows for a mechanism to opt out of printing the list of supporters and opponents of local measures.
“At this time, a majority of California counties have already opted out of this requirement or have indicated that they will be doing so in the future, including our neighboring counties. Remaining consistent with our neighboring counties who share districts with Lake County would be beneficial to voters who would receive identical information on the ballots,” Valadez said.
Valadez’s office is encouraging the board to accept the resolution and take the same action to opt out.

The council on Tuesday will present proclamations for Police Week, Safe Boating Week, the 50th anniversary of Mendocino College, California Tourism Month and Building Safety Month, will present a certification of police canine and handler, and receive a presentation on the Pavement Management Program.
Public Works Director Ron Ladd will ask the city to award a $85,336.56 public works contract to Square Signs LLC dba Front Signs.
Ladd’s report explained that the project is the result of the County Wide Sign Inventory Plan completed by consultant TJKM in November of 2019 under the direction of the Lake Area Planning Council.
“The plan included a complete inventory of all signs citywide with retroreflectivity standards evaluated for conformance with the California Manual for Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The plan provided a list of all signs that failed to meet the standards and were recommended to be replaced,” Ladd said.
Ladd said the project consists of the replacement of 574 signs throughout the city limits that were included in the replacement recommendations from the County Wide Sign Inventory Plan. “Signs include street name signs, guide signs, object markers, stop signs, regulatory and warning signs.”
Also on Tuesday, Ladd will present a proposed resolution approving the City of Lakeport SB 1 Project List for fiscal year 2023-24 and direct staff to submit to the California Transportation Commission.
The projects Ladd staff proposes for the funding are the South Main Rehabilitation Project, which includes the replacement of curb, gutter and sidewalk to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act standards on both sides of the road, and pavement mill and fill from Lakeport Boulevard to the southern edge of the intersection of South Main Street and First Street, as well as miscellaneous roadway maintenance activities from Lakeport Boulevard to 20th Street.
The council also will receive a presentation from the chief building official on the city’s weed abatement program.
On the consent agenda — items considered noncontroversial and usually accepted as a slate on one vote — are ordinances; minutes of the regular council meeting on May 2; approval of application 2023-014, with staff recommendations, for the 2023 Sponsoring Survivorship Walk/Run; authorize the cancellation of the regular meeting of July 4; and receipt and filing of the third quarter report from the Community Development Department.

Heavy downpours and a thick snowpack in the Western mountains and Upper Midwest have put communities in several states at risk of flooding this spring – or already under water.
Flooding is the costliest type of natural disaster in the U.S., responsible for about 90% of the damage from natural disasters each year. It happens almost every day somewhere in the country.
Yet, much of the aging infrastructure meant to protect U.S. communities is in bad shape and, in some cases, failing. The American Society of Civil Engineers gave the nation’s dams, levees and stormwater infrastructure a D grade in its latest report card, in 2021.
Help is coming. Congress authorized billions of dollars for infrastructure projects under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in 2021. But there’s a problem: New infrastructure planning frequently relies on historical flood patterns for its benchmarks rather than forecasts of changing risks as the climate warms.
We study flood risks and mitigation strategies as civil and environmental engineers. As federal funding for infrastructure rolls in, communities run the risk of spending millions of dollars on systems that weren’t built to handle the flood risks ahead.
Infrastructure is failing
Much of the nation’s flood control infrastructure was designed for 20th century storms and flooding. And in many cases, stormwater systems, levees and dams are now approaching the end of their useful life, or are already well beyond it.
The nation’s river levees are 50 years old on average. Retention ponds are meant to last 20-30 years on average. Stormwater systems are also aging, and retrofits in cities like Chicago and Philadelphia are getting expensive.
Midland, Michigan, saw the risks in 2020 when heavy rainfall caused the Edenville Dam, built in 1925, to collapse. The rush of water overwhelmed a second downstream dam, creating a disaster that drained two lakes and damaged or destroyed more than 2,000 homes. The dams’ owner had lost its hydropower license for the Edenville Dam two years earlier, in part for failing to widen its spillway for safety.
Increasing damage like this has pushed federal flood insurance costs higher – more than three times higher in parts of coastal Louisiana and Florida under the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s new risk-based premiums, newly released FEMA data show. At the same time, many of the people most at risk are low-income families who can least afford the costs of recovery without help.
Old data won’t protect against future flood risk
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the most significant U.S. infrastructure law in recent years, includes $55 billion in new spending for water infrastructure – money that is making its way to communities. But that’s barely an eighth of what the American Society of Civil Engineers estimates is needed for drinking water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure improvements.
And another problem arises when the money arrives.
Often, new infrastructure is designed using historical data, such as past high-water marks and storm intensity, to determine future flood risk. However, climate change is moving those baselines.
Years of satellite observations have shown that, globally, both extreme wet and extreme dry conditions have increased in extent, duration and severity. A warming atmosphere can hold more moisture, leading to stronger downpours. As heavy precipitation intensifies, more frequent and severe flooding events have hit the U.S.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency currently estimates that approximately 13 million Americans – around 4% of the population – live in 100-year flood zones, meaning the area has at least a 1% chance of flooding in a given year. But FEMA’s maps often overlook smaller streams that frequently run through heavily populated areas.
Federal flood maps also take years to update. Many still rely on decades-old data and fail to consider the rising risks from climate change. That can lead to complacency for community leaders and residents – until it’s too late.
There are alternatives that communities can use to help align their planning with a more likely future.
Researchers working with the nonprofit First Street Foundation developed some of the first U.S. flood maps that account for future flood risk at the local level. They estimate that climate change alone will increase flood damage in the U.S. by 26% by 2050 and expand into areas that rarely saw severe flooding in the past. With people continuing to build in high-risk areas, the costs and number of people at risk rise even higher.
What can communities do?
Protecting communities starts with changing the status quo, including incorporating climate change into infrastructure planning and developing innovative policies for better flood management.
Stopping construction of new homes in flood-prone areas can help avoid future damage and the need for expensive infrastructure, though political pressure and housing shortages can make these measures difficult.
Buyouts of flood-prone homes to prevent rebuilding are expensive and slow, but they have been used in over 1,100 counties in almost every state to avoid repeated flooding. In some cases, moving away from coastlines and riversides is the only option. Known as managed retreat, it is gaining interest, particularly in communities at risk from sea level rise, but it’s also controversial. Success largely depends on whether the effort is community-led.
Nature-based solutions, such as bioswales, wetlands and rain gardens, can be relatively affordable methods to help capture and absorb rainwater, reducing the amount of runoff that flows into rivers and exacerbates flooding.
But for many communities to remain unchanged, building and maintaining large-scale infrastructure will be necessary. Designing structures like levees or seawalls so they can be expanded or raised in the future is one strategy that can ultimately save money.
Innovative and sustainable funding mechanisms will likely be needed to support flood resilience efforts. One option is establishing local dedicated funds to finance flood resilience initiatives, supported by government grants, private donations and small local taxes. Managed well, these funds could invest in long-term solutions and sustainable land practices that can reduce the frequency and severity of flooding.
Many communities are making an effort, often pushed by residents lobbying officials to prioritize flood initiatives and investments designed to stand up to the future. Changes won’t happen overnight, but taking proactive measures and supporting innovative solutions will benefit communities in the long run and is the fiscally responsible thing to do.
