People in the North tend to speak better French than those who live in the South, but there is no absolute rule. French, as well as classical Arabic, are only taught in school (very early on, though). Depending on how good the kids do in school, they might or might not get to master them. Generally, from the lack of practice, a lot of people don't master either of them, just their local dialect. About feeling jealous or not... Let's say that we were all given an opportunity to learn French at a very young age, so those who can't speak it either weren't interested or didn't get a good teacher or a chance to practice. As such, some who need it later either regret not studying enough or just state they "hate the language". But no jealousy whatsoever, I think.

algeria is situated in north africa between tunisiq qnd morroco ; for the language while we where in war with France the french commanders banned arabic and force franch language in schools but people still learn it in secret back then then after taking our independence arabic became the main language but french still stuck with us so we learn it in primary school as the 1st foreign language then came English in middle school so it's surprising if you found that we speak french fluently ; like any other country we are only jalous about our main language wich is arabic but you could see that most of algerian people hate french language.

Ageria is located in Northern Africa so it's a crossroad of cultures between Europe & middle & southern Africa , as a result Algerian people ended up being bi / trilangual through learning French at school & also through the French colonisation era so French blended in in the Algerian slang . The jealousy you mentioned I'm not sure what did you mean by it

No place in Algeria speaks French, It's Arabic the native language
while French sometimes used as separated words in the Local Arabic dialects.
