Gorgeous city, wild nightlife, good food -
crime and living conditions were abhorrent. Police offers open-carry Uzi's and I'm concerned walking around people that appear to have nothing to lose.
I went with a group of 14 guys that were 28-31yos. I felt strongly that I would go back with my wife, but not alone - at least with another couple. The thought of her going to the bathroom alone is scary and that's without even considering our 9mo.
Cops in Paris have carried Uzi's for 30 years (maybe they levelled up after). Don't let if bother you.
Don't compare France to Mexico
