Hoovervilles (also called shantytowns) were camps built by families during the Great Depression in the 1930s who were unfortunate enough to not be able to pay their mortgages anymore. They were built in open spaces using tin, cardboard, tar paper, glass, composition roofing, canvas, and other materials. The Americans named these towns after President Herbert Hoover because many citizens blamed him for the Great Depression, the downfall of the economic stability and lack of government help.
