Impacts of Industry

If a new industry were to move to town, there would be many impacts. For the industry to be able to hire 1500 people there would be new people who would move to town. With more people moving to town, more houses would need to be built. We would also need contractors to build those houses. When those houses were built, the town would need to expand it’s water, electricity, and waste management systems. Also, when the people move here, they would bring more vehicles, and more vehicles means more pollution.
The old businesses might not be able to support all the new people. There would be more stores that would be built to supply the new people. The new families would bring children with them, so the schools would need to be expanded. These would be the impacts of a new industry.

    I agree that the town would need more services to be able to handle the sudden population change
