Nord
6.6
High score (8-10)
Lille gives you a real city with 230k people, university culture, and actual nightlife—bars, clubs, young French professionals who went to school elsewhere. The Flemish influence means people are slightly less rigid than deeper France, and you'll find actual foreigners living here for work. It's the only place in this region where being an outsider reads as normal.
