  1. well, educated and multi-cultural people living in France don't live in the guettos around Paris or other big cities, they mix with the "average" population!

    That's why you never notice them and never hear about them...

    Besides, i'm afraid what rosbif writes is unfortunately true about the majority of multi-cultural people...


  2. I agree also with rosbif..

    I lived in the surroundings or Paris (chesnay and versailles) and people with education and money lives there (when I mean educated I mean they go to school) they are, however very traditional minded and not so multi cultural. They like living their own way and dont like to be told different.

    People in paris are quite superficial (theres always the exception of the rule) and you usually get better with foreigners living in that city. They are very interested in matters of image, the right clothe, the right food, the right way of living and they stick to that.

    I would suggest go to Paris, enjoy it but if you must live somewhere else, go somewhere else, the south is suppoused to be with friendlier people.

    For multi - cultural people in France, I wouldnt say Paris, I would say Toulouse or Strasbourg.

    Good luck.

  3. I know someone who lives near Toulouse and that is a more rural area, I would stick to Paris and big cities

    Good Luck!

  4. Belleville has a big mix of races and educated professionals.

  5. Hoho you're funny. The French are probably the least multi-cultural people in Europe, and the higher up their supposedly non-existent class system you go, the less they are - and the class system is heavily reinforced by the French education system, so educated people are rarely multicultural, and vice-versa. At least in places like the UK there are some areas where everyone lives together, in France all the immigrants (even 3rd/4th generation) are stuck into concrete caves as far from the centre of the big cities as possible. The nearest things you'll find to multicultural areas in France are the bits where all the riots happened a year or so ago...which shows you how well integrated France really is!
