There are many factors that affect the city being a car production place.
First, the amount of flat land can attract the large manufctors. Car production requires a large amount of space, so they're usually in places with large amounts of flat land.
Second, usually the car production plants are near the source of raw materials. They're near coal fields, or iron markets. These raw materials are heavy and bulky, putting factories near the source can reduce the transport cost.
Third of all, with a lot of car production plants in the same area can prevent them from moving out. This is called industrial interia. They can enjoy agglomeration economies which they can for example order iron or steel together in bulk for a cheaper price or enjoy the abundant labor supply together.
Last but not least, the help of government is important too. Government policies and tax allowances can promote the car munfactors to stay.

Few cities and towns had organized fire companies so fire was a constant threat true or false
Sever21 [200]

The correct answer is true.

At the beginning of the firefighting practice in the 19th century, fire departments were considered as social organizations within the community they were located on. Being a firefighter was voluntary work and being a member was considered to increase your social status in your community. However, due to the "voluntary nature" of these institutions, there was an initial lack of organization in many of them. This led to low efficiency in the response to fires during the early years of firefighting.
