He speaks the truth when he says there are no sfr's in the City limits. Paris has a peripheque ring road that is based on the limits of the City itself. Within that area there are no sfr's, basically no gas stations, no drive-thrus etc. There are virtually also no buildings greater than 6 floors.

Once you get outside the City limits, you hit the ban lieu's where the commie blocks are and after about 10 or more km from the centre, you may start to see sfr's/row houses (usually with on street parking)
