A lot is changing in Paris. It is very nice to live near the river Seine nearby Marais and especially Place des Vosges and also in the neighborhood of the Jewish quarter Rue des Rosiers. These neighborhoods are very well sanitated and therefor the rent is also very high and almost impossible to pay for "the ordinary people". Slowly the city creeps in eastern direction, the part of the laborers and immigrants. "Black is beautiful," they say in Paris. But that only counts at night. In the morning the black laborers are cleaning the streets, cleaning the metro and collect the carbage. They live in Barbès-Rochechouart, a quartier of Africans in the 18th district of Paris. 132 nationalities live along the Seine: in Belleville you can find Arabs, Chinese along the Porte d'Ivry and the Japanese in the first district between the Louvre and the Opéra. There is still not much integration.

Especially in the suburbs of Paris the hatred against the immigrants is very big. Especially skinheads have done a lot to scare the hell out of the colored. Unemployment of youth is about 50% in these neighborhoods.
