21st Century Transportation
Transportation for immigrants to get into the United States has evolved in many ways. To get across from Europe and Asia, Airplanes can be used to make trips shorter and more comfortable. Ocean liner travel is still available, and is now much safer and more sanitary. Immigrants coming from Canada and Mexico are able to drive in automobiles into America, or take a plane if they wish to. Immigrants crossing illegally use their own feet as transportation, risking their lives to cross barren desert and wilderness. There are many more ways to arrive into the U.S. in the 21st Century than in the 20th Century.
