very haRD As the other person said it was hard. It was very harsh because you would have to fit about 6-10 people into a single room that was about the size of about 1 or 2 full bathroom(s). The quality of the rooms was horrible. There was no bathroom, people used a bucket as a toilet and threw the waste into the streets. It was just a horrible place for a lot of people to live in. -Azumith Smith

Living in the slums in the early 1900's was horrible. Immigrants had to live in tenements that were breaking down and collapsing. Tenement owners id not clean up the tenements either, so they were filthy. Rats, mice, you name it. These tenements were expensive too. The people blamed the immigrants of being dirty, and that's why the tenements were so filthy, but that all the immigrants could afford and it wasn't their fault.
Horrible!
the conditions were horrible because they were always dirty all the time
Poor conditions for captured soldiers
Most lived in tenements, wooden apartments that were very unsafe and unsanitary. They worked at factories and got very little money. They pretty much had a horrible life
