Immigration

Place of birth of residents of Sevran in 1999
Born in metropolitan France Born outside metropolitan France
71.3% 28.7%
Born in
overseas France 		Born in foreign countries with French citizenship at birth1 EU-15 immigrants2 Non-EU-15 immigrants
4.5% 2.5% 3.0% 18.7%
1 This group is made up largely of former French settlers, such as pieds-noirs in Northwest Africa, followed by former colonial citizens who had French citizenship at birth (such as was often the case for the native elite in French colonies), as well as to a lesser extent foreign-born children of French expatriates. A foreign country is understood as a country not part of France in 1999, so a person born for example in 1950 in Algeria, when Algeria was an integral part of France, is nonetheless listed as a person born in a foreign country in French statistics.

2 An immigrant is a person born in a foreign country not having French citizenship at birth. An immigrant may have acquired French citizenship since moving to France, but is still considered an immigrant in French statistics. On the other hand, persons born in France with foreign citizenship (the children of immigrants) are not listed as immigrants.

As of 2013 the origins of over half of its resident are from outside France. The largest ethnic backgrounds within the foreign origins are from sub-Saharan Africa, Algeria, and Morocco.[3]

In 2013 The Economist stated that Sevran was one of the poorest areas of the Paris Metropolitan Area. As of 2013 36% of the residents are considered to be below the poverty line. The national average is 12%. About 75% of Sevran's residents live in subsidized housing. The article also cites research that says "somebody called Mohamed, Ali or Kamel is four times more likely to be unemployed than somebody named Philippe or Alain."[3]

Culture

Sevran is home to an important music and dance school, the Espace François Mauriac, also known as the conservatoire de Sevran.[citation needed] Many important French and international musicians have taught there, including Claude Ballif, Allain Gaussin and Vincent Decleire.[citation needed] The famous French rappers Kaaris is also from Sevran, born to parents from Ivory Coast.[citation needed] Maes is also from Sevran, born to parents from Morocco.[6]

Allegations surfaced in 2016 accusing some cafés and bars of refusing to service women, when 3 activists participated in a television report by journalist Caroline Sinz of France 2.[7] In the report, the following sentence could be heard about a local café: "In this café, there is no diversity. We are in Sevran, we are not in Paris. You are in the 93 here! It's different mentalities, it's like back home."[8] According to one of the activists, authorities turn a blind eye as the men support the mayor.[9][10][11][12]

However, the Bondy Blog, an online media outlet focusing on working-class districts, published an article in March 2017 questioning the France 2 report, claiming to have noted the presence of women in this café on several occasions.[13][14][15] A journalist from France 2 working for the investigative newsmagazine Complément d'enquête, who subsequently visited this café, also noted the presence of women and later abandoned the idea of filming a report there.[16] The owner of the café later sued France 2 journalists David Pujadas and Caroline Sinz for racially motivated libel.[17][18]
