Costa Rican Poverty
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Costa Ricans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Costa Ricans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Costa Ricans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
