California is a state spanning the southern half of the west coast of the contiguous United States. With a population of 37 million and an area of 158,402 square miles (410,000 km2), California is the largest U.S. state in population and the third largest in area. As of 2005, California's economy is larger than all but seven national economies in the world. Although the state historically has a reputation as being more sunny and laid back compared with the East Coast of the United States, it is responsible for 13% of the United States gross domestic product (GDP), although the state population constitute only 12% of the United States population.

California is also the home of several significant economic regions such as Hollywood (entertainment), the California Central Valley (agriculture), Silicon Valley (computers and high tech), and wine producing regions such as Santa Barbara and Northern California's Wine Country (wine). California collects a total of 33 Billion dollars in property tax. Any homestead exemptions are handled at the county level and residents must contact the local County Tax Assessors office to inquire. The property tax postponement program allows eligible homeowners (senior citizens and blind or disabled residents) to postpone payment of property taxes on their principal place of residence.
