Explanation

Industrialization brought many people into factories and rapidly growing cities, where workers often faced unsafe, unhealthy conditions and overcrowded housing. Low wages and limited job security contributed to high poverty rates, while the wealth created by industry was distributed unevenly, increasing inequality. Therefore, poor working conditions, high poverty rates, crowded cities, and growing inequality were problems of the Industrial Age.
