Everyday life tends to be overpriced in major cities of Andalucia because they cater so much to tourists (Americans in particular)...much more so than more remorte regions of Spain.
I had had a look some time back at property prices in Sevilla and found them outrageously expensive and I'm sure Dordogne never got that bad (but not directly comparable)...I have no clue how the market recession has impacted prices though
