Algerians in France (French: Algériens en France; Arabic: جزائريون في فرنسا) are people of Algerian descent or nationality living in France. People of Algerian origin account for a large sector of the total population in France, and are the largest single represented foreign nationality in France. Some immigrated during colonial rule in Algeria starting in the 1920s, and large numbers chose to emigrate to France from the 1960s onwards.
