What are the problems gentrification brings? Isn’t fixing up a neighborhood a good thing? How can gentrification stop?
In: 9
the problem with gentrification is that the fixes are not aimed at the people currently living in that area, instead they are being made for the people you want to move into that area.
this often means that by increasing the property values of the area gentrification will price people out and this disproportionally targets the less wealthy. as a result gentirifcation unintentionally(or not) segregates people by class and its how you cna end up with gated communities.
