Best Answer

They came looking for religious and political freedom. Why did they settle in New England? Look at a map. New England is pretty much straight across from England. I suppose it was just easier to settle down there. It would have been very difficult for the colonists to travel further west as they were not equipped to do so when they first arrived.
