Why were farmers who moved to the city trapped there? They owed their landlords too much money to leave. They were promised more

pay at the factories and assumed more money would come in. The farmers sold all they had to make the move and could not afford to go back. There was a great deal of appeal in the city and farmers didn't want to give up.

Farmers who moved to the city thought they would have a better life there. Most of the time, they had very little land, not enough to guarantee their survival. Two or three bad harvests ruined them. They had to ask for money to the landlord in order to keep working, but if they didn't have enough to pay them when the harvest came they would have to leave the land to pay their debt. With no place left to go, they moved to the city lured by promises of a better life that turned out to be false.
