There were also of course external factors which influenced living standards in this time, such as the worldwide depression.

Finally, large companies such as American Air Filters have set up factories in rural areas making it more attractive for people to relocate to the area e.g Cramlington. The pull factors associated with counter-urbanisation also have a large impact within the process, for example houses in smaller settlements in rural areas are often less densely populated than those in the larger cities such as Birmingham. People believe that living in locations that are quieter and with less pollution will improve their quality of life. Additionally, some rural settlements such as Cramlington have had improvements in their communication service which makes it easier for people to live and work in these less populated areas. Furthermore, there have been improvements with road and rail links so that it is easier to transport into work in the urbanised areas from the rural areas.
