Rural areas were particularly hard hit during the great depression because of a concurrent drought that affected America's major agricultural areas. Food and commodities prices fell large amounts putting even more economic stress on rural communities.

The drought in the west, known as the Dust Bowl, exacerbated the Great Depression in several ways. It led to widespread crop failures, destroyed farmland, and caused massive dust storms, which displaced many farmers and their families. These conditions worsened the economic hardship already experienced during the Great Depression, as it reduced agricultural output, caused food shortages, and created massive unemployment in rural areas.
Well they didnt because they played with their selfs Edit: People in cities lost their jobs and homes, lived in shantytowns, and got food from soup kitchens and bread lines.
Some rural Georgians reportedly never realized there was a Great Depression during the late 1920s and 1930s because their economic conditions had already been dire before the Great Depression began. Many were engaged in subsistence farming, living off the land and relying on barter systems, which insulated them from the broader economic collapse affecting urban areas. Additionally, the lack of access to information and media in rural regions meant they were less aware of the national economic turmoil. The persistent poverty and limited resources made it difficult for them to perceive a significant change in their already challenging livelihoods.
Life was very hard during the Great Depression. No one had any money and no one knew what to do. Jobs were not very easy to find, because every one needed one.

Life was hardest for people in urban areas during the Great Depression. This was because they did not have the space to grow food like those in the rural areas.

Most countries in the world got effected by The Great Depression, but Japan Did not get effected strongly. The Great Depression lasted about ten years.
