They were both settled by the English and both struggled through hunger, disease, and conflicts with the Natives, though the colonists at Plymouth had generally good relations with them at first. The main religions of both colonies were versions of Christianity, but Plymouth was settled by Puritans, and Jamestown was operated under the Anglican church of England.
1) Jamestown and Plymouth were both permanent English colonies
2) Both did not start out as royal colonies
3) Both were started in the early 1600s (Jamestown = 1607, Plymouth = 1620)
4) Colonists at Jamestown and Plymouth suffered greatly in the beginning - the colonists at Jamestown weren't used to the hard labor they had to do and suffered from famine/illness/etc while the colonists at Plymouth arrived later during the year and suffered from an extremely harsh winter.
5) Both colonies received at least some help from friendly Native Americans but later mistreated the Native Americans
6) Both colonies became, for at least a short period of time, royal colonies (Virginia, including Jamestown, became a royal colony in 1624 while Plymouth became one for a short period of time when the MA charter was revoked and all of the towns (Plymouth included) in MA became part of a royal colony when the Dominion of New England was formed)
7) Both colonies eventually prospered after their respective difficulties starting out
And then a few of the blatantly obvious ones:
- both colonies were founded on the Atlantic Coast

Much of the contrast between the two colonies had to do with the reason they came to America. Jamestown settlers sought economic gain and were sponsored by the Virginia Company of London, an organization that wanted to expand English trade and get a wider market for Britainâ??s manufactured products. New England settlers moved to America due to the religious persecution they had suffered in England. While most people in the Jamestown colonies were members of the Church of England, the Pilgrims were dissenters from the Church of England and established the Puritan Church.
The 13 colonies all worked together to defeat the British troops, the most powerful army at the time.
