Anglo settlers rushed to Texas in the early 19th century primarily for economic opportunities, including land for farming and ranching. The Mexican government's land grants and relatively low prices attracted many settlers seeking new beginnings. Additionally, the promise of a more favorable climate and the prospect of escaping economic difficulties in the United States motivated many to move westward. This influx of settlers ultimately contributed to tensions with the Mexican government and the push for Texas independence.
