At the foot of the southern slope, the Pigalle area is shared between the sex trade in all its forms and authentic memorial sites scattered along the boulevards of the famous cabarets and a large cemetery where many artists.

The 18th district is crossed by arteries Boulevard Barbès-Boulevard Ornano separating medium to poor (Ward Chapel; Goutte d'Or) averages relatively affluent populations (Quartier des Grandes-Carrières, District Clignancourt).
