Answer:

(B) They were unhealthy and crowded, is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Saint Augustine in Florida, Santa Fe in New Mexico, New York city in New York and Boston in Massachusetts were some of the famous cities of colonial America. Life in theses cities was very much different from the countryside. The life of city dwellers were different from the ones living in countryside as the cities were center of trade, production and business while the countryside was dominated by agriculture and farmers. The presence of middle class was a key characteristic of these cities and the cites in colonial America were crowded and unhealthy.
