It seems that unemployment rate averaged between 8 percent and 35 percent in 1933, the worst year of the Depression for unemployment. That is non-farm workers. And, you have to remember that establishing the rate was not as accurate as it is today. Lots of people during the Depression simply did not appear on the unemployment rate because there was no way of keeping track of who was looking for work or who had just given up and "rode the rails." There was not unemployment insurance back then. Also the farmers lost all of there crops and hoover cut taxes and gave more crops to the farmers.
it was a very bad rate of unemployment in the late 1800 because that was during the great depression
