A lot of people immigrated to the U.S. and a lot of those immigrants had little money and so they could only afford to live in small apartment buildings called tenements. The tenements were poorly designed, unsafe, really run down, and lacked running water, electricity, and sanitation. Most of the time these immigrants who were in poverty usually had to have their whole family work including kids and women just to get money to live.
