The number of public toilets the Romans built around their vast empire is not known. It has been estimated that in 315 AD the city of Rome had 144 such toilets.
Since most Roman houses had no baths or toilets, the Romans built public toilets and public baths. The baths had a communal character, acting as a place for socialising. The poor lived in the upper floors of the insulae (singular insula) which were apartment blocks six-seven floors high. They lived in small and overcrowded without running water, or cooking facilities. People only went there to sleep. They lived their lives outdoors, ate outdoors, and went to outdoors public toilets and the public baths.
Roman toilets were communal and could be in rooms without partitions or outdoors. An outdoors toilet found at Ostia (Rome's port) has three walls and the fourth side was open. Along three walls there are benches with openings which rested on top of brickwork. The toilets had their sewage. They were flushed with running water. When possible they were built near the baths so that the water from the baths could be recycled to flush them.
