In the 19th century, women and children workers often lived in close proximity to the factories or mines where they worked, frequently in crowded and unsanitary conditions. Many resided in company-owned housing, which was typically cramped and poorly maintained, leading to health issues. In urban areas, entire families might share small tenements, while rural workers might live in makeshift accommodations near agricultural sites. Overall, their living conditions reflected the harsh realities of industrial labor and economic necessity.
