Angers caddles its new students. This is right and clever. They were about 32 000 in 2009 on 147 000 inhabitants in 2009. One inhabitant out of five is student and students spend money in town : housing, transportations, food, books and... fun. And not always for the calmness of streets in the centre during nights. That aspect doesn't appear in the page the town hall website dedicated to the welcome of the news Angevins.
"Students jobs, culture and sports activities, assistance from the Centre communal d'action sociale, carte A'Tout in order to gain acces to municipal facilities, sorting and of wastes... all these issues will be expounded to allow students to discover and fully take benefit of their new lifestyle", next Thursday says the Angers website. If the city is concerned by lifestyle in down town of inhabitants, it does't demonstrate it. It would have been maybe appropriate to remind them their duties in down town during nights before inviting them to a free evening at Le Chabada, where silence is not the main caracteristic...
Within a few monts, or maybe weeks, Angers medias will report about the inconveniences of noisy evenings, the city will organize talks with students, it will have to send night correspondants to prevent disturbances and sometimes send police to warn hecklers. "Angers knows how to welcome me", declares the website. The students will surely remember it!
