It depends so much on the kind of dystopia, I think. I definitely prefer the slightly lighter dystopias personally, and good characters fit a lot more easily into those kinds of settings.

But I also kind of wonder... should those still count as dystopias? Isn't part of the horror and point of a true dystopia how intensely difficult - almost impossible - it would be to remain a good person?

I would argue the first Night Watch/City Guards books in the Discworld series come pretty close to what OP is looking for. There's the dirty city and messed up honourable old Sam Vimes, being a good copper because he can't help it.

Ankh-Morpork is a shitty place to live but it's by no means a dystopia

YOU SHOULD READ NINEFOX GAMBIT IT'S SO GOOD

OP shouldn't tho, everyone is complicit, even the truly kind good people have always been complicit and they have to be a little monstrous and fight so hard to extricate themselves from complicity

it's so good though
