Well let me explain it to you like this: Industrial revolution affected the north a great deal and was all pretty much positive except for the problems that came when immigrants started to coming in. The only problems were the labor unions that formed when the workers decided they wanted more pay and better working conditions and the wealthy wanted to increase profits in their businesses. In the South there were many struggles when it came to segregation and discrimination. The economy was being rebuilt. The population was low and it didnt seem like a great place to be during this period.In the midwest there were also labor unions like in the north but they like the north also had many positive things come out of the revolution. In the West their transportaion was great with the transcontinental railroad and there economy base was agriculture but they had problems when immigrats from China came in and offered to work for less wages. The best parts to be living at that time were the North or Midwest because their economy was booming, the cities were expanding. Hope this works good for you
