The true purpose of the vault was to genetically enhance children who had entered the vault, eventually harvesting their genes to grow strong and intelligent enough to survive the mental and physical test they were put through.

Vault 81 was another example that did concern the safety of residents, the vault 81 can be found east of Forest Grove Marsh. Unlike any other vaults in the game, vault 81 is active when the player encounters it.

The goal of the vault was to create a single universal cure for every possible disease, and the resident were the test subjects for that matter. During their time inside the vault, they were subjected to numerous diseases along with their cure. Fortunately for the resident, the first vault overseer managed to prevent this outcome.
