The correct answer is D) fire hazards.

Fire hazards are not an effect of overcrowding.

The demand for jobs during the industrial revolution attracted many people, immigrants, and former slaves to larger cities where fabrics and industries were located. This created the problem of overcrowding, where too many people lived in small and inadequate homes, creating potential problems such as the spread of diseases, lack of good sleep patterns, personal problems and frictions.
