Southern and Eastern European Immigration Most immigrants settled in
cities. They lived in neighborhoods that were separated into ethnic groups. Here they duplicated many of the comforts of their homelands, including language and religion.
Immigrants who learned English, adapted to American culture, had marketable skills or money, or if they settled among members of their own ethnic group tended to adjust well to living in the United States.
Examples of Ethic Communities Greenwich Village – Jewish Little Italy – Italian China Town – Asian
WRTIE WHAT IS BELOW The increase in immigration
led to nativism. Nativism is anti-immigrants and only for citizen born in America to have jobs and gov’t positions
Earlier nativism was directed towards the Irish. In the early 1900s, it was towards the Asian, Jews, and eastern Europeans.

“Old” vs. “New” Immigrants New Immigrants: from southern and eastern
Europe. Some Americans feared that the New Immigrants would not assimilate to life in their new land.
Old Immigrants: from Western Europe, especially Britain, Germany, Ireland and Scandinavia. Since they had Anglo-Saxon (White) and Protestant (religious) backgrounds, they were quickly incorporated into American society.

Americans Migrate to the Cities The urban population grew from 10
million in 1870 to over 30 million by 1900. Immigrants remained in the cities, where
they worked long hours for little pay. Still, most immigrants felt their standard of living had improved in the United States.
Farmers began moving to cities because of better paying jobs, electricity, running water, plumbing, and entertainment.

The New Urban Environment Housing and transportation needs
changed in cities. As the price of land increased, building
owners began to build up- skyscrapers. In the late 1800s, various kinds of mass
transit developed. Horsecar electric trolley cars elevated railroads

Separation by Class Wealthy families lived in the heart of the
city where they constructed elaborate homes.
The middle class (doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers) tended to live away from the city.
The majority were the working class who lived in city tenements, or dark and crowded multi-family apartments.

Asian Immigration In Western cities, Chinese
immigrants worked as laborers, servants, skilled tradesmen, and merchants. Some opened their own laundries.
Between 1900 and 1919, Japanese immigration to the United States drastically increased as Japan began to build an industrial economy and an empire.
In 1910 a barracks was opened on Angel Island in California. Here, Asian immigrants, mostly young men and boys, waited sometimes for months for the results of immigration hearings.
