Gentrification

State

Gentrification occurs when middle- and upper-class residents move into and renovate less-affluent city neighborhoods, and rising costs push existing lower-income residents out.

Show

Watch for

Gentrification describes a displacement pattern tied to rising cost, not a claim that neighborhood investment itself is inherently harmful.
