00:00In suburbs to the north and east of Paris, more than a quarter of the population live below the poverty line.
00:06But the suburbs also house Olympic stadiums and swimming pools.
00:11Residents are right on top of it all but rarely go to the competitions themselves.
00:16The Olympic village is located in the suburb of Saint Denis.
00:20Thousands of apartments currently being used for athletes will soon be intended for residents.
00:25But the initial figure has decreased.
00:27Regarding the Olympic village of Saint Denis, today it is reduced by 20%.
00:32In this equation, 80% will have to be sold at an excessively high price.
00:38In such a way that people who live here will not be able to access it.
00:48Some suburbs are trying to bridge the gap between the poverty of their residents
00:52and the gold medals won just a few kilometers away.
00:57They are setting up fan zones which organize sports and activities
01:02and broadcast the games live all for free.
