Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

people during the depression could no longer afford to live in their homes, such as in the dust bowl where the economic boom from the rain of the 1920's. farmers in the dust bowl suddenly found themselves with no way of creating income for themselves and the frequent dust storms destroyed any hopes of staying employed. as a result, people lost both their homes and jobs and mostly moved west in search of jobs in the urban cities.
