Paris metropolitan area
The Paris metropolitan area (today covering an area similar to the Île-de-France région) is a statistical area encompassing the administrative city (commune) of Paris, the Paris urban area (unité urbaine) (its contiguous built-up area) and a commuter belt area (couronne périurbaine) surrounding these. Together these make the Paris aire urbaine statistical area, an area similar in concept and definition to many of the world's other metropolitan areas.
