Property Prices in French Towns and Cities

In their latest quarterly price survey, FNAIM, the professional body of estate agents, publish details of the average price of property in the major cities and towns of France.

Not surprisingly, Paris continues to head the field with an average price of €6128m². The least expensive town on the list is Nevers, in Burgundy.

As usual, we give a health warning with these price statistics, which should be used as a general guide only, as prices will vary depending on precise location, property type, surface area and condition.
