I'd caveat everything in this article with the backdrop of film and TV being in a down cycle. So of course everyone is trying to cut costs. If and when studios figure out how to profit in the streaming era (or the distribution method changes) then I would be more confident that production has truly left LA.

Of course, everything in California is too damn expensive and that can't be ignored. You can put up all the tax credits you want, the overall price level is a tough headwind for production in LA.
