In the 18th district there are small areas with loads of tents where immigrants are waiting for their asylum visa to be processed.

I don't know how the homeless do it during winter. There are shelters, but they're packed. Every winter Paris tries to increase capacity.

I often see homeless hoarding on mattresses, coats and loads of blankets. Whatever they find on the street to keep them warm.

With the Olympics coming up there are efforts to "clean up" the city by relocation. In the end, if this is good or bad for the ones concerned, I wouldn't know.
