After 3 years living in Kourou I think there is several things to correct in the article. My english is not good enought to do it myself.
1. I never heard the "White City" alias.
2. The population of Kourou is composed by people from almost all european nationalities, not only metropolitan french people, but also Spaniards, Italians, German, Danish, Swedish, etc..
3. During Rocket Launch No part of the town is closed. Just the road to the space port but from the city outwards.
4. Kourou was a small fishermen village before the space center arrival. The Prison Colony was in the island in front of Kourou but the city did not exist as city before space center construction.
As new informations... I think there are 2 important things : Kourou hosts a regiment of french Legion Etrangere (the 3rd) and actually population has decreased by the crisis in european espace project... between 2000 and 2003 almost 2000 people left the town. - — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.219.118.212 ( talk • contribs) 2006-06-09T18:41:09
