Depends on where people lived. In places like Boston and New York the impact was felt right away. The British moved in more troops and Boston was under siege. Goods and other things couldn’t get to the colonists and they had to burn church pews because they ran out of wood. New York was also controlled by the British and had a large loyalist backing. British officers were invited to parties and lived very well. In the rural areas the impact was little to none, but in some cases the British did attack towns and people were killed.
