1.Families moved often in search of work.

The Great Depression affected different regions and industries in different ways, leading to fluctuations in population patterns as families sought opportunities for employment. As industries declined or collapsed, many workers were forced to move to other areas or states in search of work. This led to frequent changes in population patterns as people moved to where there were job opportunities, leading to shifts in population density and demographics in various regions.
