Yeah. In London I pay £1800 for 1 bedroom in zone 1.

But at least you can make £120k per year here as contractor so it's manageable.

What's the contracting market like in Paris?

In the context of a London vs Paris comparison, there isn't a contracting market in Paris.

French companies don't hire individual contractors directly. It's part of the culture.
