Answer 2

While the Industrial Revolution brought great changes to the nation of Britian, it had a negative affect on the individual cities. It brought overcrowding and pollution to the cities. The overcrowding in the cities led to housing shortages. Crime rates in the cities grew, and alcoholism became rampant. The factory workers were paid low wages, creating a larger gap between the rich and the poor. The middle class increased at this time. Farmers were hard hit when the workers migrated to the cities to work in the factories.
