Because of the bad conditions that the middle of the U.S. had. Their supply (as in water) became contaminated due to all the dust and the crops began to die off. The soil was completely destroyed and the farmers had to go somewhere else to grow crops or they wouldn't make any profits. Also, living conditions were horrible. People would get sick from breathing in all the dust and staying in your house wouldn't help a lot. Better than staying outside at least. In California, the conditions were better and it was away from all the dust storms. The soil was better and the living conditions were more suitable.
