I also lived in Paris. What Americans get from their media as "no go zones" are areas with a large population of African immigrants or poor people. Yea, they are sketchy at night and I wouldn't go there alone if I was a woman, but it's nothing like sketchy areas I've seen or heard of in Chicago or SF.

When an area rules out half the demographic then there's no way to sugarcoat it.

So they are no-go zones. I'm glad you've cleared this up. I can now tell my liberal friends that a Parisian has confirmed the existence of such and it isn't just American conservatives telling lies.

There are zones like this i very city though?

Maybe start to subscribe to the bipartisan view that being a woman alone at night generally sucks.
