In 1848, the population of California was about 14,000, primarily consisting of Native Americans and a small number of settlers. By 1853, following the Gold Rush, the population had surged to approximately 300,000. This means that about 286,000 more people lived in California in 1853 than in 1848, largely due to the influx of gold seekers and migrants.
