Costa Rican Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 253,487,550 people shows no correlation between the proportion of Costa Ricans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of -0.048 and weighted average of 12.2%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Costa Ricans within a typical geography, there is a decrease of 0.070% in poverty level.
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.
