| Costa Rica
has for years been denouced as a bad place to invest or visit. This is
just not true. It's my favorite country in the region and the people
are nice and realistic. They know tourism and have been at it for years
so the quality of the service in Costa Rica is much higher than in the
other countries of Central America. |

| Costa Rica
is exceedingly beautiful with a variety of climatic conditions, and it
is still possible to find good real estate prices in Costa Rica, especially
compared to the prices in Europe and Canada. If you have your heart
set on Costa Rica, then move to Costa Rica. The weather is great; the beaches
lovely. A paradise offering springtime weather all year round, low cost
of living and first world class services. A friendly place where wealth
and social justice were walking together harmoniously and violent crime
was known as a reference to our overcrowded and polluted cities. Faced
with the spiraling cost of living, oppressive taxes and a slew of government
regulations in the U.S., people of all ages includingbaby boomers and entrepreneurs,
are searching for an affordable place to reside outside of the United States
without sacrificing their current lifestyles.
Costa Rica may be the
place they are seeking. Costa Rica seems too good to be true.
The country never experienced the ravages and exploitation visited
upon other countries in Latin America by the Spanish conquistadors.
Instead the country was originally settled by colonists who were forced
to supply the labor themselves. Thus, a sort of egilatarian society developed
with everyone doing their share of the work, and few becoming very rich
or very poor. As a result, today Costa Rica has the largest percentage
of middle class and the most equitable distribution of wealth in
Latin America. |
