Unlike in Victorian times, Roman-period rickets was less common in towns than in cities, apart from one place: Ostia in Italy, a port on the Tiber, which was densely populated with many people living in the equivalent of multi-storey apartment buildings.

Densely populated place where people live packed together in high rise apartment buildings. Why, it almost sounds like Ostia was also a city.
