CA has 57% of it’s shipments leaving the state, but percentage-wise, NJ (65%), and Mich (64%), have larger percentages of their shipments leaving their states.
A salesman at a moving company we used in 2004 told me that even at that time, they had a lot more people moving out of San Diego than moving in. Maybe people leaving the state have money and use moving companies, and people moving into the state rent U-Hauls.
