>It has often been assumed that the rise of Nazism was inextricably intertwined with unemployment. As unemployment rose dramatically after 1928, peaked in the spring of 1932 and then declined, so did the National Socialist vote. However, Nazi party members were usually in employment; and unemployment was concentrated in those places where the Nazi vote was relatively low, such as Germany's large cities. There was a negative correlation between unemployment and NSDAP electoral support, for example in the towns of Bochum and Herne (another mining centre), and the Nazis polled worst in the pit colonies with very high levels of unemployment, where the Communists benefited from the votes of the jobless. Only 13 per cent of the unemployed supported the NSDAP, and those without jobs were over twice as likely to support the KPD.

But you're pretty dumb if you think only unemployed people are poor. All of rural northern and eastern Germany voted for NSDAP and they were poor as fuck.

Moreover it's kind of weird to single out Bochum and Herne as a typical "miner city" considering the entire Ruhrgebeit voted against NSDAP. Look at the map and how Silesia, a textbook mining region voted.
