City workers in 1840 were likely less healthy than farmers due to poor living conditions in crowded urban areas, exposure to industrial pollutants, and limited access to nutritious food. The lack of sanitation, clean water, and proper medical care in cities contributed to higher rates of disease and health problems among urban workers compared to farmers living in rural areas with cleaner environments and more physically demanding, but less hazardous, work.
In 1840, the estimated world population was around 1.1 billion.

Voter turnout increased during this period due to the removal of property ownership requirements in many states, allowing more white males to vote. This led to higher participation in elections, with voter turnout peaking in the election of 1840.

Yes, it is true that by 1840, Great Britain had fewer than half of its labor force producing food. This shift in labor force distribution was due to the Industrial Revolution, which saw a significant increase in manufacturing and other non-agricultural industries.
Although factory work paid good money, the factories were unhealthy and possibly even dangerous places.

City workers in 1840 might be less healthy than farmers due to the harsh living and working conditions in urban areas. They often faced overcrowding, poor sanitation, and limited access to clean water, leading to the spread of diseases. Additionally, factory work was typically more hazardous and involved long hours in unhealthy environments, while farmers engaged in more physical activity and had access to fresh air and food. This combination of factors contributed to a lower overall health status among city workers compared to their farming counterparts.

In 1840, city workers often faced harsh living conditions, including overcrowded housing, poor sanitation, and insufficient access to fresh air and green spaces, which contributed to their declining health. Many were employed in factories with long hours and hazardous environments, leading to physical strain and exposure to harmful substances. In contrast, farmers typically had more physical activity and access to fresh produce, which supported better overall health. Additionally, rural communities often had stronger social ties and support systems, further enhancing their well-being compared to urban workers.

The following inventors developed machinery that would lead to the increased productivity of farmers between 1790 and 1840: Eli Whitney, Charles Newbold, Jethro Wood, Thomas Moore, McCormick, John Deere, Leonard Andrus, and many others.
