One of the early effects of industrialization in Texas was the development of company towns and BOOMTOWNS.
Given that Boomtown is a place or town which is characterized by its sudden and quick rise in population and economic development as a result of industrial activities such as exploration and mining activities.
In the early stage of Texas, industrialization led to the development of company town particularly Beaumont city due to the presence of Spindletop which is an oil field for oil exploration for companies such as Gulf Oil, Texaco, and Humble. The effect also led to the development of boomtown like Houston which is in the south of Beaumont.
