California started getting gold rush migration far before the car industry started flourishing. Silicon Valley is now essentially the heart of the modern gold rush, but of course not everybody will be lured there.

I believe the population growth has contributed to the growth of Silicon valley significantly. There seems some feedback loop between the population growth and the industry growth.
