What are the slums like in the USA vs. in developing countries?

Image
Abstract Scriber When you think of slums, what do you picture? Overcrowded, rundown, dangerous? It’s easy to imagine a life of struggle. But slums aren’t the same everywhere. They might look different, but the pain? It’s the same. In places like India, Brazil, and Kenya, slums are huge. Cramped. Dirty. People fight for every basic thing—water, electricity, toilets. No one asks for much. Just a roof. But that’s even hard to get. Now, let’s look at slums in the USA. Not overcrowded, not like those massive slums in other countries. But still, people are living in tough conditions. Run-down apartments. Broken infrastructure. High crime. Low opportunities. It’s not perfect, but it’s their struggle. Just like anyone else. Slums in Developing Countries: What does life look like there? Life in slums like those in India or Kenya is raw. People make do. They build homes from scrap metal, cardboard, anything they can find. They walk miles for clean water. They can’t even dream o...
