Question

The late 1800s saw a rise in immigration to some of the major cities in the United States. As a result of this, the presence of which type of domicile also increased in these cities?

Answer 1

Tenements

Step-by-step explanation:

During the late 1800s, millions of people emigrated to the United States, especially from Europe, but also a few from Asia and Latin America. American born population also grew by high rates due to high fertility rates, and falling mortality rates.

This brought massive population growth to American cities, and to keep with this demand, large tenements were built.

In these tenements, dozens of families shared the same building, often in small apartments of low quality and low sanitation. Sometimes epidemics ran through, and social conflicts were also common.
