[quote=Anonymous]Gentrification is bad because people need a place to live. Period. This prices them out of housing. Sure you can stay if you own your home as I do but taxes increase with the inflated home values and when I sell I still need somewhere to live. Yeah. I know. I can move way out or to another region which is fantastic except as an older person, I'd appreciate being near decent medical care and not have to drive far for everything. And if you rent, you're pushed out with the quickness. Great for you with the high incomes but many hard working people don't have them. [/quote]
