The feel of the district
A former village annexed to Paris in 1860, the 20th has kept its sloping streets, workers’ housing and artists’ studios. The Campagne à Paris and its houses with gardens, the paths of the Père-Lachaise, the murals of Ménilmontant and the Belleville market make it one of the most endearing arrondissements in the capital.
It is the part of Paris with the highest share of main residences: people really live here. The housing mixes small faubourg buildings, 1970s social housing and town houses, with prices that remain among the most moderate in Paris.
