It effected California because they had to worry about the Okies. They truly hated the Okies. They even called them cuss words and dumb okies. Okie children had a hard time in public schools. They got in a lot of fights just because of who they were. That is pretty sad!
Unwanted additions to the ranks of the unemployed . . . I think.
The displaced farmers of the Dust Bowl became the migrants described in John Steinbeck's, Grapes of Wrath. Families from Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada and Arkansas, packed what they could in cars and trucks and headed west.

"The Grapes of Wrath" upset Californians because it depicted the harsh realities of the Dust Bowl migration and the struggles of migrant workers, highlighting the poor living conditions and mistreatment they faced in California. The novel's portrayal of social injustice and economic exploitation provoked strong reactions from some Californians who felt it painted an unflattering and accurate picture of the state's treatment of migrants.
Most Dust Bowl migrants headed west to states like California in search of work and better living conditions. They were drawn by the promise of opportunities in agriculture and other industries.
Perhaps the term foreign invaders rings a bell. California provided closed entry points at times until conditions became so desperate that they were admitted to avoid violence and for humantarian reasons. They certainly received far less compassion then illegals get today.
The arrival of dust bowl refugees in the 1930s represented a significant migration of people fleeing the ecological and economic devastation caused by severe drought and dust storms in the Great Plains. This influx of migrants led to strains on local resources in the areas they settled, such as California, and played a role in shaping migration patterns and policy responses during the Great Depression.
Nationwide effects of the Dust Bowl: migrants left effected areas to move elsewhere, decreased grain production.
Rural states lost population, while states with large cities gained population.
Many farmers lost their livelihoods and were forced to abandon their land due to the extreme drought and soil erosion caused by the Dust Bowl. This led to widespread financial hardship and mass migration of families in search of better opportunities elsewhere.
Most Dust Bowl migrants headed to cities in California, especially Los Angeles and San Francisco, seeking work opportunities in agriculture, manufacturing, and other industries. Cities like Stockton, Bakersfield, and Fresno were also popular destinations due to their growing economies and employment opportunities during the Great Depression.

Many Californians viewed Dust Bowl refugees with suspicion and resentment, as they often competed for scarce jobs and resources during the Great Depression. Some feared that the influx of newcomers would strain local economies and social services. Others, however, showed compassion and empathy towards the refugees, recognizing the hardships they had faced and offering assistance.
