Baio’s happy days in California are behind him.
According to a report from The New York Post, actor Scott Baio is leaving the Golden State behind due to out-of-control crime and a raging homeless crisis.
“After 45 years, I’m making my way to finally ‘exit stage right’ from California,” the sitcom actor said, adding staggering statistics about homelessness in his tweet.
“‘The most recent survey conducted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority found approximately 69,000 people experiencing homelessness in L.A. County and 41,000 in the city in 2022,’” Baio shared in the tweet.

From The New York Post:
The “Charles in Charge” actor blames the state’s soft-on-crime initiatives for the rampant homelessness issues, tweeting that it “brings down property value” and, after decades of living in California, “it’s just not a safe place anymore.”
The retired actor, who was clapping back at haters on Twitter after making his announcement, said his fellow Californians would not “miss his ‘right wing’ views.”
After a Twitter user told Baio he would not be missed in the Golden State, the “Joanie Loves Chachi” actor fired back with a witty response.
Maybe not, but they’ll certainly miss the high taxes I pay,” Baio responded.
