Were there rich poor or middle class in ancient rome?

Answer 1

The Romans did not have a middle class like us. They had three social orders (as they called them). The patricians were the aristocracy. The equites (equestrians, cavalrymen) were a class of wealthy bankers, moneylenders, merchants and investors in mining and shipping. The rest were the plebeians, which comprised both middle income groups and the masses of the poor.

Answer 2

There was a huge gap between the rich and the poor in ancient Rome. The rich lived a life of great luxury. There was a middling income class, which cannot be compared with the modern middle class. The majority of the population lived in abject poverty. The masses of the poor relied on a grain dole which distributed free grain to the poor.
