The Costa Brava has been a favorite destination for the French for some forty years. Over the years, a veritable community has settled here, enjoying an exceptional quality of life. N1immo tells you more.
A large French community on the Costa Brava
Between 12,000 and 15,000 French people live on the Costa Brava. Although the English outnumber the French (around 40,000), this figure nevertheless reflects the strong presence of the French community in the region. While some only stay for half the year (to enjoy the sunshine), a large number live here all year round. This is the case for retirees who wish to spend the rest of their post-working lives in idyllic surroundings. But it's not just the older generation who are attracted to this beautiful region, as are young professionals. What's more, property prices on the Costa Brava are often affordable, making it easy to invest.
A community ready to help
If you'd like to meet and mingle with French students, expatriates or retirees on the Costa Brava, there are a number of associations set up by the French community to bring many residents together for an afternoon or evening. There's plenty to do to help each other out and relax. The Institut français and the Alliance française are also there to help you.
