Life in the 15th arrondissement
The family arrondissement par excellence: Parc André-Citroën, rue du Commerce for shopping, the Seine banks by Beaugrenelle and a host of local markets. Safe, practical, well served (M6, 8, 10, 12, 13) and offering bigger flats for the price than the centre. Daily life is easy and 'authentic Paris', built for families. In return: it's not touristy and rather sleepy in the evening, with no big nightlife scene. Ideal for a family or couple who want space, safety and shops, at the cost of the buzz.

Parc André-Citroën, rue du Commerce for shopping, the Seine banks by Beaugrenelle. Very 'Parisian family'; safe but sleepy at night.
