Hauts-de-Seine

Department of France in Île-de-France

About

Hauts-de-Seine (French pronunciation: [o d(ə) sɛn] ; lit. 'Seine Heights') is a department in the Île-de-France region of France. It covers Paris's western inner suburbs.

It is bordered by Paris, Seine-Saint-Denis and Val-de-Marne to the east, Val-d'Oise to the north, Yvelines to the west and Essonne to the south. With a population of 1,654,712 (as of 2023) and a total area of 176 square kilometres (68 square miles), it has the second highest population density among all departments of France, after Paris. It is the seventh most populous department in France. Its prefecture is Nanterre, although Boulogne-Billancourt, one of its two subprefectures, alongside Antony, has a larger population.
