Conditions in a tenement neighborhood are very unsanitary and unsafe. People were forced to live in very small living quarters because the "large rooms were partitioned into several smaller ones." They reached the lowest level of guidelines for housing and "without regard to light or ventilation." They soon became unsafe with "loose in morals, improvident in habits, degraded, and squalid as beggary itself."
