Question

which best explains how floridas population changed during the 1920s land boom?
a widespread crop failure led thousands of people to move to the state.
a strong economy led thousands to buy land and move to the state.
a series of bad weather events led thousands to move to the state.
a recession forced thousands of people to move away from the state.

Explanation:

During the 1920s land boom in Florida, the state's economy was strong. This economic strength attracted people to buy land and move there. Crop failure (Option A) would likely cause people to leave an area rather than move to it. Bad weather events (Option C) are not the main reason for a population increase during a land boom. A recession (Option D) would not lead to population growth as it implies economic downturn and hardship.

Answer:

B. A strong economy led thousands to buy land and move to the state.
