""Dwellings and Schools for the Poor"" is a book written by Charles Eliot Norton in 1852. The book focuses on the living conditions and education of the poor during the mid-19th century.

Norton provides detailed descriptions of various housing and educational projects that were implemented to improve the lives of the poor, both in America and Europe.
