My partner and I were there last March, considering it as a place to move, and had to cut our trip short because of Covid. Some of the recent changes make it more viable, as importing cars etc, was very expensive. Regarding the government, a lot of locals were upset with the government policies, mostly around immigration, with lots of people moving into "slums" as low-wage workers from neighbouring countries, displacing Tico workers. There were a lot of fans of Trump there because of his policies around immigration. I was surprised, as I had a good impression of the government there, like you do, and expected to see more pride in the way things were done regarding the environment. Interestingly, one of the people I talked with these opinions was a full-time accountant who took the day off to drive us across the country for $100.
