1 People poured into the cities of England, each one ready to begin a new life working in the factories or in one of the other jobs now available in the fast-growing cities. It would be a big change from life in the country. In the early 1800s, few people traveled far from home, and for many this would be their first time in a big city. Yet, most of these people had come to stay. They soon found that life in the city was much different from the life they had known in the country.
