A "pull factor" is a reason a person comes to a certain region, area, or country. In the 1800's the US was a hot spot for immigrants because there were a large number of industrial jobs available. The industrial revolution began in the US in the decades prior to the Civil War with the biggest part of the boom taking place after the war's conclusion.
