What is the difference between old immigrants and old immigrants?
Old Immigrants started coming to the "New World" or North America from 1820-1860 from northern or Western Europe [German, English, and Norwegian]. Mostly Protestants. They were usually literate and skillful in professions. They came to America with families and had money/wealth. They were experienced in democracy. New Immigrants started coming to North America from 1880-1924 from southern or eastern Europe [Italians, Poles, eastern Europe Jews]. They were often of religions such as Catholic, Orthodox, or Jewish. Many were illiterate and unskilled (with some exceptions, for example some of the Jews were tailors). They came alone and with little to no money on them (again with some exceptions). Often they treated like radicals or autocrats. In the latter part of this wave, Asians came to America on the west coast, many to work on the railroads. Their labor was welcome but otherwise they were not well liked by the Caucasians.

Why did so many Jewish families decide to emigrate during the turn of the century around the year 1900?
Jews joined the much larger wave of immigration from Eastern, Central, and Southern Europe to the United States in 1880s-1920s. Jews left Eastern Europe for many of the same reasons as Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Hungarians, Austrians, Germans, Italians, and Spaniards left for America. There were more economic opportunities in America, American laws made immigration relatively easy, and steamship speeds and costs made long distance boat travel more accessible. In the Jewish case, an additional push factor were the numerous pogroms and Anti-Semitic attacks throughout Eastern Europe.As is typical among the European communities in general, the Jews who tended to make the voyage were more modern-leaning. As a result, the Jewish community in the United States tended to have a far lower percentage of Hasidim and Orthodox Jews than the European Jewish population and a much higher percentage of Liberal Jews or Maskilim than in Europe.
