The Great Depression in Florida's economic bubble burst in 1926, when money and credit ran out and banks and investors abruptly stopped trusting the paper millionaires. Florida became an economic hardship. Hope this answers your question i had just answered mine and the teacher told me it was good.

Florida had already been in depression of it's own by the October 1929 crash that began the Great Depression . During that time it wasn't unusual for Florida families to have live on $ 5 a week, or around $ 70 in today's value ,and sometimes even less
