In the nineteenth century, most US cities did not face widespread issues related to advanced technological infrastructure, such as internet connectivity or modern transportation systems like subways and electric trains. Instead, cities grappled with challenges like overcrowding, sanitation, and labor unrest. The absence of modern technology meant that problems related to communication and information access were minimal compared to the pressing social and economic issues of the time.

During the early nineteenth century there was a vast migration from the country into cities. This migration led to major problems in cities such as waste-management. It also helped to create urban slums. In addition to the migration from the American countryside, there were also waves of immigrants pouring into the country throuh Ellis Island, making cities, especially New York and its surrounding areas a lot more ethnically diverse. Because most of these immigrants were also poor, their coming to cities was another contributing factor to urban slums.
