Answer: Because cities attracted newcomers with their cultural attractions, social networks, and employment prospects, the majority of immigrants in the late 1800s preferred to reside in metropolitan regions. Urban regions offered opportunities for both social and economic progress as well as integration into a community of like-minded individuals.

Most immigrants chose to live in the cities when they entered the United States in the late 1800s, since this is where a majority of the jobs were due to Industrialization.
