According to a study based on millions of data points from the Restos du Coeur, extreme poverty in France increased by 37 percent between 2018 and 2025, while residential precariousness surged by 62 percent. The findings highlight a significant deterioration in living conditions and housing stability within the country over the seven-year period.
In related economic developments, the euro declined at the start of the week to 1.118 dollars, a depreciation of 0.6 percent that marked new lows since May 2025. This currency movement was driven by the strength of the US dollar alongside growing market concerns regarding the political and fiscal situation in certain European nations.
