Further Explanation:

As the industrialization grow in United States, Many new workers came to big cities looking for work as they thought that working under some industry will give them more money and make wealthy. But they were unaware of the fact that cities were not equipped to take workers more than a particular number as there were no such major arrangements in the cities for workers to live. Unknown of this very fact, workers moved to the cities in search of work and cities were not able to accommodate those numbers. This problem lead to creation of ‘Slums’ in the cities and there were poor living conditions in the cities. In Slums, big population of workers used to live in small areas.
