Location-location-location firstly.\nThat's why we are the "Crossroads of the world"\n\nWhich brings us to immigration...by people suffering from tyrannical rule all over the globe. We captured these immigrants minds, souls and vast reservoirs of talent before their offspring's went off on something called "Manifest Destiny".\n\nThen there was something called opportunity. To live life as you saw fit and if you worked hard at could make your dreams come true...the port of New York became the greatest and most ethnically commercial sound port in the world, both for merchants and consumers. We had and still have anything and everything any ethnic group needs to have in order to feel at home.\nI'm not sure but I believe mile for mile we have the greatest concentration of places of worship of all ethnic groups found anywhere in the world.\nI won't ramble on and on you should grasp the point by now.

It sounds like you are asking for a full research paper. That is a lot more that what can be posted in an answer here.\n\nAre you having a hard time finding research material? You may want to ask the librarian at your library. They are supposed to be skilled in helping you find materials for research projects.

Sorry to blow your theory--but areas with large influxes of immigrants have less crime.  Take a look at New York City's crime statistics.  It is a city of over 9 million--38% are foreign born & it is one of the safest cities in the US.  Harvard just published statistics backing up my statements.  Do you have data that can back up yours?

As far as the immigration issue, I have no problem with anyone wanting to immigrate, but why all of the sneaking over? Does it just take so long to go through all of the red tape or something? Just curious. I didn't see any of the previous postings, but you are completely correct! Unless you are of American-Indian descent, TECHNICALLY none of the rest of our bloodlines originated in what is now the United States! It frustrates and saddens me to see that people are still so ignorant. Even more so when I see them passing these beliefs and attitudes down to their young children! I think there is no greater crime than that! Where did the innocence of youth go? Way to go though. Great topic!

I'm guessing this is about the transcontinental railroad.  If thats the case, it caused more immigration by...\n1. Directly creating jobs, many immigrants migrated and worked for the railroad industry.\n2. The Railroad industry itself allowed many other jobs across the US to be created due to the shipping of materials and goods to factories (which before weren't possible because there were no means of transportation.)  The materials used in factories allowed for faster production, which lead to the need for more workers, which lead to many immigrants coming to the US to work for low wages.
