Why Costa Rica?
A democratic, law abiding, small country not involved in world politics. A country with no army, welcoming to visitors and immigrants, beautiful warm weather and beaches ….OUT OF THE WAY.
And if you buy a condominium and invest in the country, you can opt for Residency Status and eventually for citizenship …without losing your current citizenship.
Health Care
Costa Rica is one of nine blue zones- areas where people live over 90 to 100 years- in the world!
You’ll be surprised at the high standard of private hospitals. You’ll get world-class treatment for a fraction of the price you’d pay elsewhere. Same thing with dental services.
With residency you can access the local public healthcare system. Here, you have access to plenty of very first-class treatment and prescription drugs as part of your monthly Caja (the local Social Security entity) payment.
If you’re coming from the United States, you may be surprised to see no-one goes broke in Costa Rica paying for healthcare.
