Italian immigrants were very prominent during the time when immigration was a big part of the United States. Overall, about four million Italians migrated to America during this time that lasted from about 1880 to the late 1920's. Italians migrated to America for many reasons such as poverty, disease, overpopulation, land that could not be cultivated for farming, natural disasters, government problems etc. Although many Italians that arrived here did not plan on staying permanently, because they just wanted to make enough money to suffice back in their homeland, Italy.
