Best Answer

slave owners gave them free houses on their land. after slaves were declared free many chose to stay in those houses and work the land for a very minimal wage. Had they left the plantation they would likely not be able to find work and be homeless. Many placed in that position moved up north and worked toward building Americas manufacturing industries.
