为何此处不可以填settled

In 1999, my family moved to the USA, _________ in California. 
此处的答案是填settling.
为何不可以填settled? My family is settled in California如此的表达是正确的，对吗？既然这样,是否可以把In 1999, my family moved to the USA, settled in California.理解成由In 1999, my family moved to the USA和My family was settled in California两个简单句构成的一个含非谓语动词结构的句子？
麻烦老师告诉我为何此处不可以填settled?

假如把此句改为并列句，这句话都是主动语态：
In 1999, my family moved to the USA and settled in California. 
虽然有 be settled in （在某地安顿下来）这个结构，此时 settled 为形容词。但权威词典的例句，都是主动语态。没 be settled in 的例句。
She settled in Vienna after her father's death. 
爸爸死后，她就在维也纳定居了。
