Orly

Orly is a commune in the southern suburbs of Paris, situated between an alluvial plain and a plateau. The town features residential areas with a mix of older and newer buildings spread across its territory.

The name derives from the Latin Aureliacum, referring to an ancient estate. The area experienced major growth during the 20th century as Paris expanded outward into its surrounding regions.

The annual photography festival 'Mois de la Photo' runs from November to December, featuring exhibitions from local artists throughout multiple venues in the commune.

Two train stations connect the town to Paris's metro system: Les Saules and Orly-Ville offer quick rides toward the center. Most locations here are easily accessible by public transportation.

The municipal infrastructure spans 145,353 square meters, serving a population of 23,515 residents, including 9,200 people under age 30 and 1,415 seniors above 75.
