He also looks at the social and economic factors that contributed to the poor living conditions of these individuals.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the housing conditions of the poor, including the physical state of the buildings, the sanitation and hygiene of the dwellings, and the impact of overcrowding on the health and wellbeing of the residents. Worthington also discusses the role of landlords and local authorities in providing and regulating housing for the poor.The second part of the book examines the economic conditions of the working-class population, including their wages, hours of work, and the types of jobs available to them. Worthington discusses the impact of low wages on the ability of these individuals to secure adequate housing and provide for their families.Overall, The Dwellings Of The Poor And Weekly Wage-Earners In And Around Towns provides a comprehensive analysis of the living conditions of the poor and working-class people in urban areas during the late 19th century.
