[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our principal at our title 1 school Powell, is very receptive to us gentrifiers. Its been up and coming school before most of us started attending.[/quote]

I love that you call yourself a gentrifier [/quote]

Yuck I noticed that too.[/quote]

NP. What is wrong with noting how people would see you?  I'm pretty sure people look at me and think "gentrifier" too. It's not something I specifically strive for, but it's an accurate description.[/quote]

What's wrong with the term? Is it supposed to be derogatory?[/quote]

The family four doors down from us has lived here for generations.  They're not young, so when the weather is bad I go "ice bite" their steps.  It's not hard to be a good neighbor.  When we had work done on our roof, the grandfather stood there in the alley for a couple of hours until I got home - he was making sure nobody was messing around with our house.  Your neighbors don't mind you gentrifying, they like improvements in city services too.  Just make friends with them.

Be nice.  Life is really that easy.[/quote]
