Large-scale Czech immigration to the US began in the 1840s - sparked by the revolutionary movements at the beginning of the 19th century. Initially settling in Midwestern cities for the cheap farmland available by the 1870s many of them migrated to New York and specifically the Lower East Side in the area around Tompkins Square.
