It is right in the middle of some very unstable nations. Panama I can understand, the US wants it to remain stable for the Panama Canal. But how is Costa Rica so stable even thought they don’t have anything like that? Or do they and I’m not aware of it?

I see very good answers, but one of the biggest reasons is lacking: Costa Rica has little to no natural resources (just like other “3rd world” but very stable and democratic countries: Uruguay & Mauritius).
Thus foreign powers don’t interfere with Costa Rica’s internal affairs to try and steal resources.
