and I am posting my reply to help others who might log on:

searching for young, vibrant and multi ethnic area?

I think you would like the following neighbourhoods, (listed in number arrond.)

2/3/9/10/11/12/17/18/19/20

I would choose 11/12/19/20 for price, fun, great markets, bars and restaurants. You willl get a bigger home too.

I have left out the snobby, expensive and overpriced areas, e.g. 4th, the heart of the Marais and the Latin Quarter 5/6 & include 7 too in that. For instance cafes will eat into even a Saudi Princesse's budget, the supermarkets are crap and very over-priced.
