  • Immigrants came to America mostly for economic reasons, religious rights, or to escape war, famine, or unrest in their homelands.
  • Immigrants came to America, because there were more jobs in demand for unskilled workers.
  • Immigrants came from many countries to escape famine, such as the Irish, religious and political persecution, and wars in their home countries. Many just wanted a chance for a better life and the "American Dream."

Immigrants chose to move to colonial America for better opportunities. Many other immigrants chose to move to America for religious freedom.
