The district was originally inhabited by the Boruca natives. The settlement of peoples of Europeans descent began in 1870, when they began building a road from El Guarco to Boruca. Some settlements of different indigenous people of the region are found in the district (Bribri, Boruca and Cabecares).

Buenos Aires has an area of 555.37 km²[3] and an elevation of 361 metres.[1]

Future

There are plans to build a dam on the river Térraba to generate electricity. This would create a lake of considerable dimensions. This project has so far not been carried out due to lack of funding, as well as the opposition of certain indigenous groups.
