[quote=Anonymous]All the booming areas were developed along shipping lines followed by train lines, largely along the two coasts. Industries popped up elsewhere back when America was a big producer, with factories along train lines—including the Midwest. Factories left America, and you saw people flock to established cities with other job opportunities. Jobs have always prompted population shifts. Google the great migration. The mass movement by blacks to the north was driven by job opportunities back when we still had factories in places like Baltimore and Detroit. [/quote]
