[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lmao, a lot of the places mentioned in this thread are the same places that studies are identifying as being at risk for gentrification. Closer-in PG County, South Arlington, etc. “Appreciation” is code word for “push the last of the poor remaining inside of the beltway outside of it,” aka gentrification. Please stop repeating this goddamn cycle. It’s good that more people with money are moving into these areas and integrating them more, but if South Arlington becomes another North Arlington, then that’s a problem. If Clinton, Bladensburg, and District Heights become the next Bethesda, then that’s a problem. [/quote]

I don’t understand what you are asking for. People are priced out of areas so they move into other areas. What would you have someone who can’t live in North Arlington do other than move to South Arlington? If they’re actually living there (versus investors/developers leaving it empty or doing a flip) then they have every right to be there as anyone else. [/quote]
