California Phone Directory Online




Who has not heard of California? It is not only a state in the United States of America; it has become almost a brand. Television studios have used California’s popularity and made series using this name. Remember for example the TV series “Californication “.




You will not find the term in the dictionary but it has become a trade mark and people all over the world have heard of it and have started using the term. The California phone directory online is by far the largest directory in the United States of America because California is the most populous state in the United States and the second most populous sub-entity in the world. Although it is the most populous city in the United States of America, California is not the largest by land area, ranking only third in this section after Texas and Alaska.

California comprises four of the most famous cities in the United States of America: San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose.

Due to the California Gold Rush in the 19th century, the state has suffered a rapid development both economically and socially. It became in the 20th century the center of the American entertainment industry because of the city of Los Angeles.

California got its’ name from Diego de Becerra and Fortun Ximenez after a Spanish expedition back in 1533 and its’ nickname nowadays is “The Golden State”. The racial make-up of the state provides us with a variety of ancestries, making California a real multicultural and ethnical cradle of the United States of America. The California phone directory online is a mingle of American, Hispanic, Latino, Asian and American Indian names and institutions , all proof of the ethnical variety that is found in this state. Whites represent the larger percentage in the state, but this percentage is lower than 50%. Whites are accounted to represent 42.3 percent of the population followed by the Hispanic or Latino population with 36.6 percent, Asians 12.5 percent, African Americans 6.7 percent, multiracial population 2.6 percent and 1.2 percent American Indian population.

The most commonly used languages in California households are English and Spanish. However, do not imagine that just because they are on American land, other ethnicities have stopped speaking their mother tongue. If in California, you are most likely to hear people speaking Filipino, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and probably Mandarin. California is the state with the largest linguistic diversity and only 43 percent of the population actually uses the English language.


California is also known all over the world for a very interesting fact. We all know actor Arnold Schwarzenegger but I am sure that not all of us know Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. That was quite a carrier change, don’t you think? Therefore, if you want to look him up in the California phone directory online, make sure you look him up in the right section!
