a crowded apartment building called a tenement
people
wealthy owners of powerful companies
poorly paid factory workers and their families
small - business owners who made a medium amount of money
housing type

Explanation:

• For "wealthy owners of powerful companies": The text says the wealthy could afford large and ornate homes. A giant mansion taking up a full city block fits this.
• For "poorly paid factory workers and their families": They are in the less - wealthy group. The text mentions others (less wealthy) lived in tiny apartments or outside the city. A crowded tenement apartment building is for those with lower income.
• For "small - business owners who made a medium amount of money": They are in the middle economic class. A single - family home in the suburb (outside city center) is a housing type that middle - class people could afford.

Answer:

• wealthy owners of powerful companies: a giant mansion taking up a full city block
• poorly paid factory workers and their families: a crowded apartment building called a tenement
• small - business owners who made a medium amount of money: a single - family home in a suburb outside of the center of the city
