[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] In the case of Arlington, the County is developing hundreds of new affordable housing units along Columbia Pike. They will have to import people to fill the units just as they had to import people from DC to put in its homeless shelter. [/quote]
