It was not until after World War II that large numbers of Puerto Ricans began migrating to the United States mainland. In 1945, the year the war ended, Puerto Rico had been experiencing economic hardship. Puerto Rico’s population was increasing, and there were fewer jobs available. Travel between Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland also became much more affordable. Therefore, many Puerto Ricans moved to New York City in hopes of a better life. In a single decade (1950-1960), almost half a million Puerto Ricans migrated to the U.S. mainland. Which two events were reasons why Puerto Ricans migrated to the U.S. mainland?

• Puerto Rico had fewer jobs available.

• Travel between Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland was cheaper.

• Puerto Rico was having an economic boom.

• The war had ended.
