 About Saint Quentin en Yvelines and the towns that make up the "New City"(Ville Nouvelle): Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines is a new city (1970's) that has been created from 7 ancient towns; Elancourt, Guyancourt, Magny-les-Hameaux, Montigny-le-Bretonneux, Trappes, La Verrière and Voisins-le-Bretonneux. The neighboring town of Maurepas was originally part of the new city, but left the group in 1983. The new city is located in the Yvelines department in France, to the west of Versailles. As part of an agglomeration, in many aspects (transport, social services, local governmental agencies), the towns share many parts of a common infrastructure. Though each town has it's own elected council, the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines city council is made up of representatives from each town. According to the 2007 census, the "agglomeration" had 146,598 inhabitants for an area of 6742 hectares, or a population density of 2,174 inhabitants/km2.
