Are tourists in New Caledonia safer from terrorism than in metropolitan France?

Yes and no
Yes, it is safer
Because New Caledonia is somehow independent. Combine with the fact that even France do not care for this remote island it makes NC an ultra-low priority target
No, no place is safe
Because the word of ISIS is like "Strike them in your neighborhood"
This means that if a guy living there feel like killing people for ISIS, he will kill people in New Caledonia. Even if it is meaningless on the big picture (he can't do anything on the big picture anyway)

As terrorism is crazy acts by crazy people, some designed and many rather random, you can not predict it. There are parts of the world where it is more likely to run into terorism, but France nor New Caledonia is on the high risk list.
People going to a small island in safe Norway got killed by one person who handled in an unpredictable way.
That can happen anywhere in the world, so also in safe New Caledonia.
In Paris, where the risk of a terrorist attacks is more likely, there is safety in numbers. Even if many people suffer in an attack in Paris, the chances you are not involved are huge, it is very likely you will not even notice anything till services are stopped or police comes out on the streets in force.
Anyway, if you let terrorist dictate where you can or can not travel, they win. I will not let them win, so I have been in Paris and will travel to Paris again when the chance comes up.
