Though unemployment during the Great Depression was widespread, it was higher in some parts of the United States than in others. A geographer uses
unemployment data points to make a map, while an economic historian
arranges data about state-by-state unemployment levels in a table.
What information might the geographer be able to convey more clearly than
the economic historian?
• A. The level of unemployment in each state
• B. The percentage of each state's population that was unemployed
O C. The relative sizes of the areas affected by each level of
unemployment
O D. The years when unemployment was worst in each area
