French estates...

I watched La Haine the other day, sick film, I highly reccomend you watch it. It's about the riots in Paris.

Anyway, I was on flickr just now and came across this guys photostream full of pics of suburban Parisian housing estates.

Interesting shit right here.

the postboxes have a cross on them cause nobody lives there.




a tag with the name of the estate "cité rose" + the district "93"







stats of this estate here :
sig.ville.gouv.fr/Territoire/1100370

the stats show it's one of the worst estates in paris ( the income per inhabitants is almost equivalent to "les bosquets" estate). 53% of the inhabitants are under 20 years old..



DAMN.
