In a perfect example of how poor the poor of the Italius Kingdom are, they must pay rent to have a home simply because they do not have the materials or money to build homes. Luckily their monarchs took pity on them years ago and built tenement housing; cramped one to two room apartments with thin walls and annoying neighbors. However, this is cheaper than building a house and most people chose to live in the tenements. Still, there's a few free-standing houses at the edge of the tenement village.
