    Out of the given options, "The settlement house movement" was a response to the poor living conditions of tenement housing.

    Answer: Option A

    Explanation:

    Following a lot of people settling in New York for work, they left their homes behind for the same. These tenements were cramped with poor facilities for the residents, which later took a toll on the residents. Later people from Europe migrated to the United States for cheap labor.

    It was at that time Jane Addams and Ellen Gates founded the first settlement house in 1889. These houses not only accommodate immigrants but also had comparatively better facilities than tenements, such as recreational activities.
