Based on the map of New York City in 1842, the supported idea about urbanization was that was more likely to occur near water for transport and energy needs.
<h3>Why does urbanization often start by the shore?</h3>
Urbanization often starts by the coastline or near the shore because people use the water for commercial activities which drive development. They use the water for transportation of goods and services by boats, and for energy as well as food for instance by fishing and through irrigation.
This was one of the reasons why New York became a major city. Thanks to its connection to the Atlantic Ocean, it became a major port that brought in goods from outside the country and also took goods from the country out. This was made even more effective when the Eerie canal was built to link New York to the Great Lakes.

Poverty was widespread in America.
Away from the nation's affluent suburbs was another country, one inhabited by the poor, the ill-fed, the ill-housed, and the ill-educated. This was the assertion made by author Michael Harrington in his 1962 book, <em>The Other America: Poverty in the United States.</em> Harrington's book had an impact on the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. President Johnson's "Great Society" plans aimed to address the problems of poverty in America.
