The seven arrondissements of Paris of the Mediterranean! Athens City
Many Greeks and non Greeks on Facebook claim to live in Athens, Greece!
But they live in an unofficial Athens Metro (think of NYC or LA or London or Paris), that means one of its suburbs in the North, East, South and SouthEast.
Eg Kifissia, Kallithea, Ekali, Faliron, Psychico, etc.
They have to commute to Athens if they work there or weekends for walks or for shopping or night life.
Athens City is only the area on the map below and has 7 sectors (diamerismata in Greek).
They are like the Paris arrondissements.
In 2020-2030 the growth sectors are No6 and No5.
The Exarchia you have heard of in the news due to riots by anarchists and clashes between protesters and the Police are in a different sector.
