Resumen
Descripción
Costa Rica is well-known for its
socio-economic achievements with low levels of poverty and
inequality by Latin American standards. It also performs
well in health, access to improved water supplies, suitable
housing and other basic services, including electricity and
sanitation, relative to comparable countries. Nonetheless,
the country faces important challenges in the on-going fight
against poverty.
