Paris : toujours plus cher

Despite the fact that elsewhere in France property prices are plateau-ing and the French media howls about "Le Krach" (the crash), for reason's mentioned earlier this week, Parisian property prices are still going up.

The median price per m² is 7 000 € and easily 10 000 € + in the sought-after quartiers, such as the 4th, 6th and 7th.

To take a look at the prices per arrondissement compiled by property website PAP (where owners list their property for sale direct). Figures are based on the sales price reported by owners advertising on their site after they withdraw their adverts when the properties sell.
