Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Redirect Шаблон:Infobox French subdivision Шаблон:Arrondissements of Paris
The 16th arrondissement of Paris (Шаблон:Lang; Шаблон:IPA-fr) is the westernmost of the 20 arrondissements of the capital city of France. Located on the Right Bank, it is adjacent to the 17th and 8th arrondissements to the northeast, as well as to Boulogne-Billancourt, Hauts-de-Seine to the southwest. Opposite the Seine are the 7th and 15th arrondissements.
Notable sights of the 16th arrondissement include the Шаблон:Lang (at the junction with the 8th and 17th arrondissements) and the Шаблон:Lang, where the Шаблон:Lang stands, itself concentrating three museums and one theatre. Other museums and cultural venues are located in this arrondissement, including the Louis Vuitton Foundation opened in 2014.[1]
With its ornate 19th-century buildings, large avenues, prestigious schools, museums, in addition to various parks, the arrondissement has long been known as one of French high society's favourite places of residence (comparable to London's Kensington and Chelsea or Berlin's Charlottenburg)[2] to such an extent that the phrase Шаблон:Lang has been associated with great wealth in French popular culture. Indeed, the 16th arrondissement of Paris is France's third richest district for average household income, following the 7th arrondissement and Шаблон:Lang, both adjacent.[3]
The 16th arrondissement hosts several large sporting venues, including: the Шаблон:Lang, which is the stadium where Шаблон:Lang football club plays its home matches; [[Stade Roland Garros|Шаблон:Lang Stadium]], where the French Open tennis championships are held; and Шаблон:Lang, home to the Шаблон:Lang rugby union club. The Шаблон:Lang, the second-largest public park in Paris (behind only the Шаблон:Lang), is also located in this arrondissement.
History
The 16th arrondissement was created by the Law of 16 June 1859 which incorporated the former villages (now Parisian neighborhoods) of Auteuil, Passy and Chaillot into Paris; these villages had become communes after the French Revolution and had been in the Seine department ever since. When the law of 1859 was drafted, it was planned that these villages would form a new arrondissement that would be numbered the 13th arrondissement, but "The rich and powerful moving in did not like the number. They pulled strings and became the 16th, the unlucky association and postmark being transferred to the blameless but less influential folks around Porte d'Italie."[4]
Geography
The land area of this arrondissement is 16.305 km2 (Шаблон:Nowrap or 4,029 acres), slightly more than half of which consists of the Bois de Boulogne park. Excluding the Bois de Boulogne, its land area is 7.846 km2 (Шаблон:Nowrap or 1,939 acres). It is the largest arrondissement in Paris in terms of land area.

Demographics and politics
The 16th arrondissement population peaked in 1962, when it had 227,418 inhabitants. At the last census (2009), the population was 169,372. The 16th arrondissement contains a great deal of business activity; in 1999 it hosted 106,971 jobs.
The 16th arrondissement is commonly thought to be one of the richest parts of Paris (as the saying Auteuil-Neuilly-Passy popularised); it features some of the most expensive real estate in France including the famous Auteuil "villas",[note 1] heirs to 19th century high society country houses, they are exclusive gated communities with huge houses surrounded by gardens, which is extremely rare in Paris. It is also the only arrondissement in Paris to be divided into two separate postal codes. The southern part of the arrondissement carries a postal code of 75016, while the northern part has the code of 75116.
Politics
The 16th arrondissement is one of the strongest areas in the country for the French right. At the 2017 French presidential election, it gave over 58% of its votes in the first round to right-wing candidate François Fillon; amidst a poor national result of only 20%. It then went on to vote for Emmanuel Macron by a landslide in the runoff.
