When the generations of these imigrants began to be born in Iowa it was easier because they would speak english so people could understand them. Another problem is how they looked different and also ate different. With them coming to Iowa it has brought new styles and new foods, which isnt always a bad thing. These people also came with little possesions. They also had different religion beliefs. It was hard for them to do little things like finding a residence enrolling there kids in school and getting a drivers liscens. Adults would have to spend long hours at work so it left little time for them to learn english, so it took them several years to master it. These people relied on people to interpret for them. also because there children were the only ones who could enroll in school they would have to rely on them for transpertation. New comers to Iowa usually worked in low paying jobs, in the meatpacking indrusties. Worked long hours and usually had more then one job.
