Why did people go to California during the Great Depression?

My mother's family immigrated to California from the Great Plains during the Great Depression. I can answer this question.

/kloc-the unemployment rate was very high in the 1930 s. After my mother and her husband and sister moved to California, they lost their jobs and went bankrupt.

In California, some industries had jobs in the 1930s. Many unemployed farmers from the Great Plains can find jobs as agricultural workers in large-scale agricultural industries-especially in the central valley.

My grandmother is an unemployed milliner. She got a job in the big hat factory in the clothing district of Los Angeles at that time. Los Angeles has the second largest clothing industry in the United States after new york. Many white and black women from the Great Plains and Southwest can find jobs in this industry.

My mother's husband did this on the radio. After a radio station in Des Moines was fired, he decided to move to Hollywood, then the world broadcasting production center.

In Los Angeles in the 1930 s, there were people who were unemployed or underemployed everywhere, and these people were "still increasing". These people appear in Raymond Chandler's black * * *. People may have been attracted by the charm of sunshine all year round and the image provided by the film industry. In order to survive, people launched a large-scale "self-help" movement-distributing food and other kinds of goods through barter and food exchange.
