Life in Whitechapel during the time of 1888 was known to be worthless, and cheap. Therefore the streets of Whitechapel were dangerous and risky. Murders to be with abuse, drinking, robbery, money or fights between gangs was very common and nothing out of the unordinary, especially for the street of Whitechapel where incidents like this occurred on a daily basis. Homelessness was a major problem at the time, so street was packed with prostitutes, immigrants and unemployed people, all looking for some sort of a way to gain money. When daylight went and night began to creep in, this was the time when people were at most risk especially prostitutes because they were out looking for business and the street of Whitechapel ideal. This is because there was a lack of lighting facilities at night and the narrow street and allies with gaps were the spot for business. Though sadly these places were also deal for brutal attacks to occur, Jack the Ripper murders.
