Re: moving to Alicante
Yes I am afraid it is - many people unemployed, empty commercial premises and lots of houses for sale. probably now is not a good time to come.

Re: moving to Alicante
Yes - now is a very bad time with unemployment at 4 million.
Without excellent Spanish you are unlikely to get a job, however some of the local builders are trying to attract Russian buyers - there may be an opening in an estate agent for a Russian speaker . ( but there are already many Russian speakers on the Costa Blanca who will have excellent Spanish )
Many estate agents are actually going out of business - [moderated: broken link] - this I think is a Russian agent.
Good luck
