I'll be in Strasbourg for a week in July. You're telling me the nonwhite population in Strasbourg will be fairly evenly distributed among the Alsatians, and there will no distinct immigrant enclaves? I find this hard to believe. And Strasbourg is a prosperous city with a professional expat population, due to EU.
I've explored St. Denis and environs multiple times and the nonwhite population appears to be 90%+. There are so few whites I get noticed (I'm Northern European looking). Back where I usually stay in the 7th around Rue Saint-Dominique, the only nonwhites are people working or passing thru.
I'm sure there is increasing integration over time, but France has considerable segregation. It's obviously hard to compare given the lack of granular data on race-ethnicity. If it's like in Germany, any urban social housing complexes will now be overwhelmingly skewed towards nonwhites. In Germany these complexes are often called Affenkäfige, which is horribly racist (monkey cages).
