Neighbourhoods
The 10th arrondissement of Marseille includes six neighbourhoods (quartiers): la Capelette, Menpenti, Pont-de-Vivaux, Saint-Loup, Saint-Tronc, and La Timone and 25 IRIS including 24 IRIS housing and Prado Park.

Public transport
The Capelette neighbourhood is very poorly served by public transport. Only the number 18 line from Saint-Loup to Castellane passes through Capelette.
