Curated directly by the reviewer from the INEC Costa Rica Encuesta Continua de Empleo (Continuous Employment Survey), historical-series workbook Cuadro 4, average monthly income from the main job (gross current income, colones), moving quarter April to June 2026. Archetype: all employees in Information and communication together with real estate, arts, and other services (Comunicación y otros servicios). No occupation or seniority split is published, so this is an all-seniority average: treat it as a floor when quoting senior roles. The branch mixes ICT with lower-paying service activities, so it understates pure ICT specialists; the three technology families share this one published pool. For context, the economy-wide mean in the same quarter was 543,425 colones.
