Immigrants come to the US every year. There has never been a single year of US history in which there were no immigrants.
Immigrants had to adapt to a lot of things. They had to adapt to their new job and their new home. Some or maybe even most immigrants were unskilled, so it was hard to find a good job that give you low wages. If you get low wages, than that would mean a lot less money. No money means your gonna struggle supporting you family. And most immigrants were stuffed into a small tenement. They had to adapt to that because some families lived in such a small, tight space, that they had to sleep on the floor. Sometimes there was no heat either. So it would be REALLY hot in the summer and REALLY cold in the winter. Some had to adapt not living with their other family members. During the testing (to see if you are well and healthy to enter America), if you didn't pass, you would be sent back, and families have been separated, so you'd have to get used to not living with them.
