| Description: In 1850 affluent Philadelphians resided in the core of the city while factory workers lived in shanties and boarding houses along its outskirts. This map, based on census data for 1850, shows that fewer factory workers lived in downtown Philadelphia than were employed by the factories there. Each day, thousands of factory workers from Penn Township and the eastern section of Passyunk Township walked into town to work in downtown factories.
