[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "In the Navy Yard neighborhood, about 77 percent of residents were identified as low income in 2000. Sixteen years later, that population dropped to 21 percent. Most of the people pushed out of these economic hot spots are black and low income, according to the data." https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/in-the-district-gentrification-means-widespread-displacement-report-says/2019/04/26/950a0c00-6775-11e9-8985-4cf30147bdca_story.html?outputType=amp[/quote] That doesn't answer the question. What if there were 100 residents in 2000, and now there are 10,000? So 77 low-income residents in 2000, compared to 2100 now? That wouldn't be evidence of low-income people getting pushed out.[/quote]
