Modern cities took on a more organized and structured geographic look, with the development of grid-like street layouts and the construction of high-rise buildings. As they grew to enormous size, they continued to function through various means such as the implementation of public transportation systems, the creation of zoning laws to regulate land use, and the establishment of infrastructure for utilities such as water, electricity, and sanitation. Additionally, modern cities also expanded their social and economic functions by creating diverse neighborhoods, business districts, and recreational areas to accommodate the needs of their growing populations. Overall, modern cities adapted and evolved to maintain functionality and efficiency despite their enormous size.

The "new" immigrants were both pushed out of their native countries and pulled to America to varying extents. Push factors included political and religious persecution, economic hardship, and lack of opportunities in their home countries. Pull factors included the promise of economic opportunity, freedom from persecution, and the chance to start a new life in a land of opportunity.
Many immigrants returned to their native countries due to a variety of reasons. Some found it difficult to adjust to the cultural differences and discrimination they faced in America. Others struggled to find employment or build a successful life in their new country. Additionally, some immigrants returned to their native countries to be with family or to reclaim land and property they had left behind.
Jews were the major exception to this trend for several reasons. First, Jews faced intense persecution and discrimination in their native countries, particularly in Eastern Europe. This made the pull to America much stronger for them, as they sought refuge from anti-Semitic violence and oppression. Additionally, Jews often had little to return to in their native countries, as their homes and businesses had been confiscated or destroyed. As a result, many Jews chose to stay in America and build new lives for themselves and their families.
