Immigration to the west coast mainly consisted of Chinese immigrants (except during the Chinese Exclusion Act). Chinese immigrants worked on the railroad and moved somewhat throughout the west. Immigration in the east mainly consisted of southern and eastern European immigrants. They would arrive at Ellis Island and rarely move about the east, they would usually stay in major cities such as NYC and Philadelphia. Immigrants of the east had difficulties assimilating, as most of the WASPS wanted, because they tended to keep their culture and traditions. Most of the immigrants were young men and had little education and did not speak much English and went to work in factories.
