The city of Paris has seen a consistent decline in its population of around 10,000 residents each year over the last decade, indicating a serious urban crisis.
Opposition leaders argue that people have fled due to unbearable urbanization, citing issues like excessive construction that leads to 'street canyons' and diminishing livability.
Longtime allies of the mayor assert that investment in 'social and affordable' housing is at an all-time high, crucial for retaining lower-income residents in the city.
Experts highlight several post-war trends, emphasizing the increasing housing quality that diminishes urban density as a key factor in the population drop.
