The social and environmental factor that most enabled cult expansion among the options you've provided is **Ineffective schools and neighborhood violence**.
Ineffective schools can lead to a lack of educational engagement and support, making young people more vulnerable to alternative influences, including cults. Neighborhood violence can create a sense of insecurity and fear, prompting individuals to seek belonging or safety in groups that offer community and a sense of purpose, which many cults do.
Both factors contribute to an environment where individuals may seek out the comfort and support that cults can provide, leading to expansion.
