__**Hungarian Immigraton**__

Hungarian immigration mainly started during the Soviet Invasion in 1956. Other timesa when Hungarian immigration was popular was during World War 2 and the Hallocust.

Most Hungarians chain migrated which means one person from a family would come over and then one by one the rest of the family would come over also. Hungarians came to America because land in Hungary was scarce. Hungarians also left Hungary because the population grew so the land was in the hands of a small percent of the population. Hungarians came to America because there were better job opportunities and accessibility.

The most three most popular places for Hungarians to settle were California, Ohio, and New York.
