Why is every cardboard jungle called hooverville Bud Not Buddy?

In "Bud, Not Buddy," the term "Hooverville" refers to the makeshift shantytowns that sprung up during the Great Depression, named after President Herbert Hoover, who was blamed for the economic hardships of the time. These areas were often populated by homeless families and individuals seeking shelter and community amid their struggles. The use of the term in the novel highlights the desperation and resilience of people during this era, as well as the societal issues surrounding poverty and displacement.
