By the 1880's immigration from Western Europe had declined and given way to the new immigration from Central and Eastern Europe, most notably Russia and Germany. The immigrants swarmed into New York City and were forced to take menial jobs. In the mid-nineteenth century, almost half of all employed immigrants worked in the garment industry or as manual labor, servants, cooks, waiters, and household help. The number of immigrants in New York City increased steadily throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and by 1910, there was a foreign-born population of nearly two millionBy the 1880's, both the Irish and the Germans had established themselves in New York City economic and political life and by 1909, they were no longer seen as a threat to the so-called American way. However, in late 1880s, a second wave of immigration began which consisted of Polish and Russian Jews, southern Italians, as well as a spattering of Greeks, Poles, Hungarians, Romanians, Bohemians, and Chinese. Between 1880 and 1919, 17 million immigrants passed through the Port of New York. Most of these immigrants settled in cities, including five out of six Russian Jews and three out of four southern Italians, and many remained in New York City.Answer 2The first wave of immigration to the United States when it was the 13 original colonies in the 1600s came from England.

The last third were made up of a more diverse group; French-Canadians, Chinese brought in to help build the railroads, German Jews, Scandinavians, etc. There was a third wave of immigration (1881-1920) in which almost 23 million came to the U.S.; whereas the earlier immigrations were from northern and western Europe, most of the newer immigrants came from southern and eastern Europe including Italians, Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Slavs, Jews.
