Very few people in the Bay Area are from the area or even from CA. Many (if not majority) are from other states and countries. And a lot are from Midwest itself

Very few people in the Bay Area are from the area or even from CA. Many (if not majority) are from other states and countries. And a lot are from Midwest itself.
