Factory owners usually sought a location near a waterway or an ocean to more easily ship products and to import raw materials to create products. Ports and rivers were normally more populated than the countryside to begin with. As these factories expanded their production, it attracted people from various farming areas to the cities where they could earn wages that were in many cases higher than their pay on farms. The workers enlarged the population of manufacturing cities.
