Industrialization effects :

  • urban population explosion
  • rural to urban population migration
  • factories made very small houses/flats for their labors close to factories to increase production
  • urban population started buying materialistic products for their comfort and rural population followed
  • child labor started
  • women started working in factories
  • labors were forced to work extra hours in poor working conditions and unhealthy environment
