What percent of Ellis Island immigrants stayed in New York rather than moving to other parts of the country?

No one kept count. But New York developed Hells Kitchen along with the Irish and Italians, and if you know what that is, you also know you decidedly wanted to get out of the place. But there was security in that grouping of ethnicity and they stayed. I don't think anyone can answer that question, but if you like the issue there, make sure you read, 'The Jungle" by Upton Sinclare. It is intensely definitive of the time and place.

While not a history book, it correctly describes the processes. Because it does that, you look at the rest of the History you read with a jaundiced eye. You realize.. most of that history is a summation and not really the history of the country.
