What are townspeople Middle Ages?

Medieval towns people were mostly of two classes. They were either laborers who were technically serfs, but did not live on manorial estates, or they were members of the middle class.

Members of both classes worked as servants, weavers, potters, carpenters, smiths, and so on. People in towns usually did not have their own cooking facilities, so there were a lot of people who cooked and sold food, especially bakers. These business were owned by middle class people, but the workers might technically have been serfs.

Also, towns had lawyers, apothecaries, jewelers, inn keepers, and clerks. These were middle class people.

Members of the nobility tended to live on their estates, which may have included villages, but usually did not include towns.

Towns had clergy in them, and some had monasteries with monastic populations.
