Steerage referred to the lowest-cost (and lowest class) accommodations on board a vessel. Generally this was the lowest deck of the ship, where the control lines for the rudder could be found; hence the name, a derivation of 'to steer'.Steerage accommodations were noisy, cramped, crowded, with limited amenities such as toilets. The passengers were also among the last to be notified of the danger, and the last to be let on board the few lifeboats; as a result, while around 95% of the first-class women and children survived the disaster, less than 45% of those traveling in steerage did; and the men fared even worse.
