How did geography influence the way people lived in the colonies?

"Geography caused some colonies to become centers of trade, and others to output huge amounts of crops." "Geography controlled every detail of the colonies, as well as the rest of the world, and still does to this day. The Mid-Atlantic colonies used their large rivers, fertile soil and open plains for large scale farming."

so basically in my own words i would say "geography has help colonies with trade, cropping, and large scale farming using natural resources."

the dust bowl, otherwise known as the dirty thirties, was a huge dust storm that killed multiple (and i mean  multiple) farmer's crops, leaving them homeless, and foodless, and jobless. in california, there were 5.7 million residents, and the population shrank as mexicans were repatriated. however, when the dustbowl happened, a lot of people began to move to california. by 1940, 250,000 people had arrived. therefore, your answer would be  the population increased, massively.  i hope this !
