Urbanization is the movement from rural area to cities. In the 1920's there were over 65 cities with more than 100,000 people. Two million people a year were leaving there farms and moving to cities. City people were more open to new ideas in art, science and politics. Most people who supported prohibition were rural white folk- and in cities, organized crime took off- famous criminals like Al Capone rose and places like Chicago became known for their crime.
