Slaves were forced to live with their owners as a means of control and to ensure that they were constantly available to work. Separating them would have made it harder for owners to monitor and exploit their labor. Additionally, living with their owners allowed for easier surveillance and suppression of any potential rebellions or escape attempts.
Yes, the majority of slaves in the antebellum South lived on farms or plantations where they were forced to work in the fields growing crops like cotton, tobacco, and sugar cane. These slaves faced harsh conditions and were subjected to long hours of labor under the control of slave owners.
Serfs were similar to slaves in that they were tied to the land they worked on and were subject to the authority of the landowner. They were required to provide labor and goods to the landowner in exchange for protection and a place to live. While serfs were not considered property like slaves, they had limited rights and freedoms, similar to those held by slaves.

Some slaves were treated kindly by their owners and developed friendships with them, especially if they worked in their master's home, or were particularly handy as a field hand. Some slaves were afraid of what it would take to live outside of the community they knew. These slaves often stayed on as paid servants or at least free room and board, after they were freed. They thought it was better than trying to make it on their own
Many freed slaves remained on the farms where they had worked as slaves for several reasons: Some masters asked (or demanded) that the newly free slaves stay on the master's property, offering a house and wages. However, by the time the master was done charging the freed slaves for rent and supplies, they received no wages and could not afford to move to another place. Some slaves were not told that they were free. Many freed slaves did not know how to live as free men and women. They would try it for awhile and then return to their former masters. Others stayed with their masters because the master had been good to them and continued to treat them well after emancipation.
There is not single answer to this as it varied by owner. Usually slaves lived in separate houses/dwellings. Wealthy owners often built houses equivalent to poor whites. Slaves of less affluent owners lived in shacks equivalent to those that housed farm animals. Some owners allowed slaves to live in the attic of their homes. There were other arrangements. See related link below for the living arrangements of George Washington's slaves when he was president.
slaves in ancient Egypt lived with their owners sorry hope you don't mind me adding that the owners were the pharaoh, temples, nobles and middle class people.
Most slaves were owned by plantation owners. Plantations were very large and needed more people to work on it so that the owners could get rich quick. Also, during the cotton boom, a lot of plantation owners needed more workers to get cotton ready for sale. Slaves didn't have to be paid, just bought.
The conductors guided runaway slaves to the north to where they could live a free life, some slaves even went to Canada to escape the slave owners.
In the CSA (Confederate States of America, the south) slave owners were masters who OWNED PROPERTY...slaves. Slaves were auctioned as live-stock; property. In the north, this situation did not exist; at least officially.
They had every kind of control imaginable. They literally decided if their slaves would live or die, how hard they had to work, who would have babies and when, who would eat and what food they would be given.... everything!
