The harbors were the entry points of many immigrants coming from Europe. Some came with very little money, and settled in the cities by necessity, hoping to get factory or labor jobs. In addition, many of the necessities needed by the colonists came from Europe and the Caribbean and arrived at the harbors, which made these locations desirable for merchants.
