The book's setting is during the Great Depression. Throughout the book, Harper Lee directly states the hardships that Maycomb is going through.

To Kill a Mockingbird is related to the Great Depression, because it takes place during that time. Remember when Atticus quit the farm and went back to school as a lawyer? He did that because during the Depression, farmers were hit the hardest.
