Why did the rural depression that hit farmers during the 1920s go largely unnoticed by the rest of the nation?

Since eastern states were doing so well economically, the rural farmers were ignores until the stock market crash hurt the east. Hope it helped!

The rural depression during the 1920s went unnoticed because of the growing urban population that focused on city prosperity, misleading national economic indicators, and limited media coverage of farmer struggles. Additionally, the political focus on urban issues further marginalized the plight of farmers facing declining prices and foreclosures. This disconnect between rural and urban experiences contributed to the lack of national awareness regarding the difficulties faced by agricultural communities.
