Explanation:

The immigrants who arrived in Lusiana were mostly in search of better living conditions, since industrialization in Aemeruca was more promising than in their local countries. However, these immigrants faced a certain hostility from the Americans, who believed that the immigrants were in America to steal the jobs of the Americans and to occupy houses and services that should be used by the local inhabitants. This generated many cases of xenophobia, but the problems that immigrants faced went beyond that.

Immigrants were willing to work for lower wages and higher hours than Americans. Many of these immigrants did not even speak English properly, which meant that they were victims of a lot of exploitation and very low wages that made them live in a situation of poverty and misery. It was also not uncommon for them to be put on more dangerous jobs and caused health damage.

As they could not afford to pay for good places to live, they ended up piling up in ghettos that had no infrastructure and that the lack of basic resources, such as sanitation, allowed the proliferation of many contagious and often deadly diseases.
