People migrated from the east coast westward during the 19th century
Three factors that encouraged western migration in the early 19th century were the availability of cheap land through the Homestead Act, the promise of economic opportunities in agriculture and industry, and the belief in Manifest Destiny, the idea that it was the United States' destiny to expand westward.
