Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cultivation of tobacco in Virginia required large areas of land, which led to settlers establishing farms far from each other to have enough space for growing tobacco. This created a dispersed settlement pattern and made it difficult to build urban areas. The large estates were not divided into smaller agricultural units until much later in Virginia's history, and the Virginia Company was already sending male laborers to the colony before the cultivation of tobacco became widespread.
