  1. slum area

    A slum area refers to a heavily populated urban informal settlement, often characterized by substandard housing and squalor, where residents live under poor conditions such as inadequate sanitation, lack of clean water, high density, dangerous structures, or high levels of pollution. These areas usually lack basic municipal services and have high rates of poverty, unemployment, and crime. They often emerge in developing countries due to rapid urbanization and economic inequality.
