According to a recent study conducted by the Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo among 40 000 people from Latin America and the Caribbean, the happiest and most satisfied people are the Costa Rica citizens. Their analysis took into consideration some of the most important facts in people’s everyday life such as quality of education (which in Costa Rica is probably the best in America), health services, home and work environment.
Costa Rica had the highest scores according to the study: Costa Rica had an average of 7,4 close came Panama at 6,8 and finally México con 6,6. I have to say that it doesn’t really surprises me, all you have to do is walk around for a couple of hours and see that those scores are definitely real, In Costa Rica people are plain happy. Costa Rica lifestyle is simple and laid back, people have gorgeous sceneries in Costa Rica so there is basically beauty to enjoy everywhere; development rates are almost the same as in the US and in Costa Rica education is at the top of the importance list, there is really a lot to be happy about.
Another thing that comes to mind is the fact that in Costa Rica, health services are available for everyone who needs them anytime and anywhere, both public and private practices, also, as an example, in Costa Rica, plastic surgery is one of the best in the world, not to mention way cheaper than in it is in the US.
Let’s not forget that Costa Rica doesn’t have or need an army either.
As you can see, it is definitely obvious why people in Costa Rica are happier than people in any other Latin AmericanCountry….
