EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1938, captures the exterior of a Type house at Garden Homes in Kern County, California. During the Great Depression, the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency, constructed this model village to provide affordable housing for agricultural laborers. The twenty completed homes, with rent set at eight dollars and twenty cents monthly, included electricity and water in the price. The photograph showcases the rustic charm of the bungalow-style houses, surrounded by lush gardens and trees, with a car parked outside. The image reflects the spirit of the 1930s, a time of economic hardship and the need for affordable housing solutions. Dorothea Lange, known for her evocative imagery, captured the essence of rural life during this period, providing a glimpse into the past and a testament to the resilience of the American spirit.
