I take your point. I live 15 minutes inland from Denia and the cost of living is cheaper than Denia. I agree living actually in Denia is more expensive than for example where I live but you are paying a little extra for living in a most beautiful, vibrant and virtually unspoilt town.
However you make it sound like an expensive place to live and it's not.
You can shop for fruit,vegetables and other goods in the multi ethnic streets around Passeig Saladar and I can assure you it's very cheap. Property is slightly more expensive because of the demand from Spanish and overseas buyers to live in a beautiful place which hasn't been overrun by British and other northern European buyers.
I had a sundown glass of wine last night at one of the Marinas in an upmarket bar/lounge, front line, not an English voice to be heard, overlooking the yachts, the the town skyline and the castle, 3€ with olives thrown in, if you think that's expensive then each to their own. That's double what I pay in my local bars in Beniarbeig but well worth it....
It's all relative!
