- White men would migrate to any place where they could secure a job.
- Asian Americans did not have many prospects for jobs outside of their own communities. Most of these communities were in California, so they remained there.
- African Americans moved from the South to the industrial cities hoping to better their condition. Unfortunately, their conditions were barely any better.
- Mexican Americans, who were largely located in the West, tended to lose many of their jobs. Many became migrant farmers, which others were forced/chose to leave America for Mexico.

- White men tended to gravitate to the industrial areas where they could obtain jobs. They were starting campaigns that promoted white men getting jobs before minorities. They even became taking jobs that used to be dominated by women. To them, it did not matter. As long as they could secure a job and a source of revenue, they were happy. Overall, the white men would stop at nothing to get a job (even if it meant putting down other groups of people).

- Asian Americans had their largest populations in California. Most Japanese Americas could not get jobs above the service level. Even those who received an education had meager jobs. Twenty percent of the Japanese in Los Angeles (and in many other areas) worked at family fruit stands. Their jobs were often taken by white men, and they had to turn to the most basic of jobs. Chinese Americans had similar experiences. They also struggled to find jobs, especially because of the hostility of white men towards them. Within their own communities, they were able to own laundries and restaurants. However, if they ventured outside of their communities, they would struggle to obtain even the worst of jobs.

- About half of the African American population lived in the South at the onset of the Great Depression. Once the Depression began, farm prices severely declined. One-third of farmers lost their land. This caused large amounts of African Americans to migrate to the industrial cities, many of them in the North. They hoped to relieve their poverty and escape the racial tensions. However, their conditions in the North were not much better. They often lost jobs to white men. In some cities, things turned ugly. Atlanta had a Black Shirts campaign that said no black men could get jobs until all white men had a job. Overall, African Americans migrated from the rural areas of the South to industrial areas (mostly in the North) to hopefully better their conditions. Unfortunately for them, their conditions did not improve much at all.

- Mexican Americans often had to compete with white men for jobs during the Great Depression. White men from the Dust Bowl lost their fertile land. Most of them traveled to California, where a large portion of Mexican Americans worked. Now the white men were taking the jobs from Mexican Americans (jobs which the white men used to never care for). Therefore, a large amount of Mexican Americans became migrant farmers. They moved from field to field harvesting the crops for prices that were considered 'starving wages.' Half a million Mexicans left the United States in the first years of the Depression. Some of them by choice/necessity, and others physically forced out of the country by officials.
