The kurdish population of Tehran

[RawandKurdistani]

Many kurds are living in the capital or/and largest city of Turkey, Syria and Iraq, But i don't know the number of kurds that live in Tehran. The city has a population of 14 million, so could it be reasonable to quess on a half million kurds?

They are mostly Faylis from what I know and I have family there in the center of Tehran.

you're joking right. Most of the kurds in tehran are kurds from kordestan province simply because of lack of work so many young kurds from kordestan province have moved there, I have been in tehran maybe 13 times and I have many family members who lives in the sh**hole called tehran so I have seen many kurds but I havn't seen fayli, I am of course not saying there aren't any faylis just that the majority of kurds are sorani speakers. There are even bazar's in tehran were all the workers are kurds.

Lol you cannot base your observation as there being a majority of Soranis, its historical fact that there are more faylis there. Most of them are Khaluris. I have also been to Tehran god knows how many times as a kid, not that that matters. Anyways you never been to Ilam , so what do you know about how many fayli speakers are there.

Why dont they work in Slemani? Its closer and everyone speaks sorani and slemani is not poor like neglected kurdish cities in Iran.

Many of them do, they go to Slemani and open small shops or they simply buy contruction materials in South Kurdistan and take it back to iran and sell it.

What historical fact? Do you have proof? I can say the exact same thing, how many times have you been in Sna? It's based on logic what i'm saying, there are limited work in Kordestan province so many of them move to tehran and I have seen many kurds working in bazars, having crowded shops etc. Many kurds moves to tehran also because of the lack of services like my. I know there are many khaloris in tehran but they are far away from outnumbering the kurds from kordestan in tehran. You said you have been in tehran as a kid, well Iast time I went there was this summer.

Ok so there is massive demographic change from when I went? I have family there as I stated, so why would I lie? I really don't see your problem.
Oh and I have been to Sna once, but again I don't see the point. Even on M.Izady's map, Khaluri tribe is located right next to Tehran, but I'm talking about inside the city. Frankly you also have no real proof from what you are saying.

"I have family there as I stated, so why would I lie?" What do you mean by that? My grandparents, 2 of my uncles, 6 of my fathers cousins and 9 of my mothers cousins lives there. Yes, years by years poor kurds moves to tehran for work. My problem is that you said that most of the kurds in tehran are faylis, who cares if it's kurds from wirme or kurds from kermanshan. But I wouldn't comment on that if I didn't know that kurds from Kordestan province are the majority of kurds inside tehran. It's obvious and does not need to be proven.

[jjmuneer]

Lol so you use my argument against me? Ok well I don't care neither, I just stated a fact. I mean I also don't need to prove anything if you don't. Frankly I don't know why people get hurt by the truth. My family there also live in a single floor house with a living room the size of my bedroom, but I really don't need to go into detail. Your also making this as a Kurdish thing, well most of Tehran is in squalor, but yes I agree Persians have most of the higher paid jobs.

But it isn't the truth There are about 600 000-700 000+ kurds in tehran and they are from all parts of Rojhelat, is that better? Because I find it very silly argumenting about this.

The problem is more religon related as opposed to tribal. Iranian regime is using shia kurds and sunni Kurds as a tool to divide us, but soon they will get bombed, and we will be independant.
