The Homestead Act Permitted any citizen to select surveyed land up to 160 acres. If they cultivated the land, they gained title after 5 years Some 400,000 families took advantage of this offer and moved “West” Competition for good land was fierce

Land Runs Thousands of families raced to gain land in 1889 when President Harrison announced it was available for first takers Rode bikes, horses, pushed wheelbarrows Millions of acres of land had been taken from the American Indians

Moving West – 3 groups 1.White Americans – middle-class farmers and businesspeople who could afford to move and wanted to improve life 2.African Americans – escape violence and persecution from the South, most popular place to settle was Kansas 3.European immigrants – sought jobs working on railroad; wanted new opportunities
