People in Monaco
The residents of Monaco are the Monegasque. Almost 39,000 people now live there. However, not all of them are of Monegasque origin. 47 out of 100 are French, 17 out of 100 Italians and three out of 100 German. Only 15 out of 100 are really Monegasque. Thus only a small part of the residents really have the Monegasque citizenship, which is very popular.
Monaco residents do not pay taxes!
Why this? If you are in Monegasse, you don’t have to pay taxes. Half of the people of Monaco, i.e. the people who actually have citizenship, are millionaires. On the other hand, life in Monaco is very expensive, especially the apartments and houses cost a lot of money that few can actually afford.
The population in Monaco is increasing, which is due to the increased influx of people and less due to the increase in births.
