Two hundred years ago, all of the country’s largest cities were located in the northeast and along the Atlantic ocean.
These cities, including boston, New york, Philadelphia, and baltimore, are still large and important places.
Our nation’s Capital is part of this string of Eastern cities.
However, as Americans moved West, they built other large cities.
Once settlers crossed the appalachian mountains, cities began to grow.
Towns such as Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and cleveland were founded on important Bodies of Water.
The Great lakes, the Ohio river, and the Mississippi river were natural places for cities.
New states like illinois, missouri, and minnesota had joined the union, and their cities soon became new Centers of power.
For example, St. Louis, near the junction of the missouri river and the mississippi river, quickly became a vital center of transportation.
One of the most important American ports was new orleans.
However, even these great cities of the Central United States were surpassed by others in the 1900s.
Large numbers of people moved West and South seeking a good climate and a better life.
Because of this explosive growth, the area known as the sun belt is now the fastest-growing part of the United States.
Cities such as los Angeles, San francisco, and Phoenix have grown into important business and cultural centers.
As such cities as Phoenix rise in population, others, such as detroit, fall.
