Costa Rica Beach Evacuation March 21, 2007

What began a year ago as a trickle, longtime residents leaving Costa Rica’s pacific beach communities, is now a stream. American and foreign residents, are either moving to San Jose, or are leaving Costa Rica entirely. Fed-up with the rampant illegal real estate development, the destruction of not only the environment, but also the destruction of the tranquil beach communities they’ve helped build.
This is a great loss for Costa Rica. Many of these foreign residents, were a part of Costa Rica’s original movement, to protect her environmental treasures. They are foreigners who respect Costa Rica’s land and traditions. Losing these wonderful people makes the effort to preserve Costa Rica more difficult.
There are even some, who have recently purchased Costa Rica beach property, that have become frustrated with lying real estate agents, theiving lawyers, and corrupt municipalities, and have decided to leave after only a short time in Costa Rica.
I will write more about the reasons, and the implications, in future posts.
