Overview
Présentation
Metropolises are big cities that concentrate populations, jobs, and creative, executive and research activities. A distinction should be made between metropolitan reality and metropolises in the legal sense of the term. The Act of 16 December 2010, along with a number of other decentralisation laws, led to the institution of 22 metropolises in France on
1 January 2019.
