Detailed explanation-1: -“Cities grew because industrial factories required large workforces and workers and their families needed places to live near their jobs. Factories and cities attracted millions of immigrants looking for work and a better life in the United States.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Many left their agrarian lives behind and headed for towns and cities to find employment. Advances in industry and the growth of factory production accelerated the trend toward urbanization in Britain.
Detailed explanation-3: -The “rural push” factors such as decline in income from agriculture, lack of alternative job, declining local economy, and denied access to basic facilities, further encourage people to move to cities. This often crystallizes into violence and conflicts and often protests against government.
Detailed explanation-4: -The increasing factory businesses created many more job opportunities in cities and people began to flock from rural areas to large urban locations. Minorities and immigrants increased these numbers. Factory jobs were readily available for immigrants and as more came to the cities to work, the larger the cities became.
