America Becomes a Nation of Cities Main Idea In
the late nineteenth century, America experienced
a period of urbanization in which the number of
cities and city dwellers increased dramatically.

safety. American innovators stepped up to the
task by developing new technologies to improve

and risks arose from fire, crime, conflict, and
lack of sanitation.
