That's interesting.
Does anyone know why there might have been as many as 1000 families to become homeless in 1920. That's 10 years before the Great Depression.

The Depression of 1920–21 was an extremely sharp deflationary recession in the United States, shortly after the end of World War I. It lasted from January 1920 to July 1921.The extent of the deflation was not only large, but large relative to the accompanying decline in real product.
