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.
Slums originated from the practice of people camping outside of city gates or city walls. Rural people looking for shelter or protection would often move closer to the walls and gates of the city. Also, merchants & traders seeing a chance to do business would set up shop outside the walls & gates. Eventually the ruling noble would see the tax benefits of new citizens and wall in & protect these people. Decrees & laws were passed that certain peoples could only live in certain areas... each to his own kind.... and slums, slumlords, and each to his own kind, and each to my own will I owe took root. So basically slums originated from those who could not protect themselves depending on those who could. Part of the city, but not part of the city.
Yes, the U.S. has areas with high levels of poverty and substandard living conditions known as urban blight or disadvantaged neighborhoods, but the term "slums" is not commonly used in the U.S. These areas often face social and economic challenges, including inadequate housing, high crime rates, and limited access to resources.
Because to earn money you must work, and to work you must, ideally, speak English. Immigrant families neither worked or spoke English, so they did not earn money, thus they could not afford to buy accommodation.

slums are considered to be a threat to public health. Since they are filled with illiterate people, they are not aware about the cleanliness of the environment. so they don 't maintain cleanliness. they do not have a proper sanitation facility. eventually all these factors combine and pose threats to the public health.
So they can get jobs
So they can work at home as a scavenger
Well, by slums I assume you mean Indian slums commonly seen in those adverts made to tug at your heart strings. First of all, you have to understand the different groups of people who may come into contact with the slums. The first being residents. Residents there may treat each other relatively fine, unless divided by political, religious or Gang violence. So it differs depending on the circumstance. The second group of people would be middle class people. I'm sure they'd avoid the slums if possible, but if they did have to go into the slums for some unknown reason, I doubt they'd look too favourable on the conditions and people. But again, it depends entirely on how liberal the individuals is and their understanding to the situation of people living in slums.

In the slums, you have very poor sanitation. So the mosquitoes are abundant. Due to poverty, people do not have good quality food. So immunity is lowered down. They do not have access to good medical care.
