What? The cities where people gripe about gentrification now, like NYC and SF, were exactly the ones abandoned in the 70s.

Did the rich actually leave NYC? The crisis is when it happens on a large scale like in Detroit, and the city hollows out

I recommend you learn more about what it was like in NYC in say 1975.

Largely agree. Ideal is to help the poor improve their situations and expand their options when gentrification happens
