We may have an oppoprtunity to use a residence just north of the Bois
de Vincennes to the east of Paris as a base of operations for a Paris
trip. I figure we'd be able to use the Metro to get in and out of the
core of Paris, and spend our evenings at the Vincennes residence. But
I want to get a feel for the neighborhood itself (safety, crime,
ambience, etc). Thanks in advance for any info.


It considered a nice residencial place.
Donjon de Vincennes just reopened to visit some weeks ago.

English King Henry V died there of dysentery in August 31, 1422.

Hygiene has improved in the meantime.




Except for the fact that scRunge lives there...???
