What were the conditions of Jewish ghettos in World War 2?
The ghettos were small districts within a city in which Hitler packed all the Jews so that he knew where they were and could easily cart them off to the death-camps. They were given very little food and many people died. The biggest one was in Warsaw, Poland, which the Nazis burned completely, killing at least 100,000 Jews, after having deported tens of thousands to the death-camps. The following explains concentration camps, rather than ghettos. Discrimination against Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, the disabled, and other minority groups began in 1933 when the Nazis under Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany and it was in 1933 that the first concentration camps in Germany were opened. However, the deportations and roundups did not really begin in large scale until after Kristallnacht (the night of broken glass), a night of riots in 1938 when many Jews were murdered, their businesses destroyed, and synagogues burned. After that time mostly Jews, but also Gypsies and other groups who were not Aryan, as well as political prisoners and people who spoke out against the government, were rounded up and moved into ghettos or taken directly to concentration camps. There were many mass executions, and as the Nazis took over more and more of Europe, their ideology and violence spread with them. Soon there were tens of concentration camps and ghettos in Poland, Austria, Chechoslovakia, and many other places. In 1942 the mass killings at the death camps and concentration camps began. Prisoners were gassed, shot, starved, and worked to death. Those still living were forced to bury the dead in mass graves, or help to work the huge ovens which turned the dead bodies into ash. Many also died of diseases and malnutrition. Prisoners were also forced on death marches towards the end of the war as the Allies approached. By 1945 when World War II ended, 6 million Jews (two out of every three living in what had become Nazi-controlled territory during the war) had been systematically murdered.

Most Jews who escaped the Holocaust or survived the concentration camps could not go back to their cities and were sent to live in displaced person camps in Germany and Austria. The majority of concentration camps were in Poland. Some Jews did attempt to return home, but for most, their homes had usually been reoccupied or destroyed during the war. Many Jews remained in these camps until the end of 1947. The last DP camp, Fohrenwald, closed in February 1957. Most Jews had to emmigrate to new countries like Israel and the United States. Other big DP camps were Feldafung, Buchberg and Furth. None of them were big enough or permanent enough to be considered cities. They were just camps and pretty rough places to live.

What is the difference between a transit camp and a ghetto during the Holocaust?
When Hitler gained he enforced strict laws on Jews that just kept getting harsher and harsher. Ghettos were usally a sectioned of area in a major city suronded by barbed wire fences and gaurded by Nazis. Ghettos were the place were all the Jews and other undesireables being persecuted by Hitler were sent. These places were impoverished and filthy. People lived and worked in the ghettos but many were forced to do cruel jobs ebforced by the Nazis. When the ghettos got to full the Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. Before the Jews were sent to the concentration camps they were sent to transit camps. Transit camps were where Jews stayed until they were sent to the concentration camp. It was sort of a sorting ground like some may have been sent to Auschwitz well others were sent to Birkenau. Transit camps were similar to concentration camps but the conditions were significanty better.
