Question

Cities were a popular place for immigrants to settle for a number of reasons. Many immigrants arrived in the US in cities and, lacking the money necessary to travel farther into the country, stayed there. Many jobs were located in cities: steam and electricity led to a boom in industry during this time period. Finally, cities offered a support system to immigrants. Ethnic enclaves were cities within cities that allowed immigrants to speak their native language, build a social life with people from their home country and maintain their culture. Have you ever been to or heard of a section of a city referred to as Chinatown or Little Italy? These types of neighborhoods started as ethnic enclaves—cultural centers where people from China or Italy lived, ate their native dishes and distributed newspapers in their native language.
