Where Enrollees Come From
From the CCC Enrollees Handbook circa 1940:
About 55 per cent of all enrollees come from the rural communities of the country, and 45 per cent from the cities. A majority of the former are from non-farm rural communities. New York state, Illinois and Texas furnish the largest numbers of enrollees. The Fourth Corps area (Southern United States) has enrolled more men than any other corps area. The Ninth Corps area (Far Western States) has had more camps than any other corps area.
