Some migrated for religious reasons, they weren't accepted in European society but in America could practice their religion freely. For example, puritans, pilgrims, Quakers etc.

Some poor family came to America for wealth, land, new opportunities.

Europeans migrated to North America for many reasons. Examples of which are:
* Better economic opportunities;
* To escape from religious persecution;
* To escape from repressive regimes in Europe; and
* The desire to live in a democratic nation.
