This essay sheds light on what is gentrification, explicates how gentrification affects neighborhoods, demystifies the benefits of gentrification occurring in neighborhoods, and explicates how to stimulate gentrification in neighborhoods. Gentrification is a process that involves transforming a poor urban area into a wealthy urban area. The process of gentrification transpires when wealthy investors invest in procuring real estate properties in a poor urban area so that they can renovate them and subsequently lease them out to tenants at exorbitant rental rates. The process of gentrification also attracts companies to expand into the urban areas that are undergoing gentrification. Companies are inclined to establish brick-and-mortar retail stores in the urban areas that are undergoing gentrification. The urban areas that are undergoing gentrification entice affluent people to migrate to them. Companies want to be able to have their brick-and-mortar retail stores located in the neighborhoods of their wealthy customers. Wealthy customers who can afford to pay exorbitant rental rates can also afford to pay premium prices to procure product offerings. The process of gentrification can help to stimulate real estate development in an urban area if rental rates in an urban area have risen to an unprecedented height. The process of gentrification is appealing to both investors and affluent people. The process of gentrification is however not with its drawbacks. The process of gentrification can culminate in significantly amplifying the cost of living in an urban area. The process of gentrification can also culminate in rendering it unaffordable for poor people to sustain living in an urban area that has undergone gentrification. The process of gentrification can culminate in there being an exodus from an urban area by poor people if it is so no longer within the parameters of their budgets to remain in an urban area that has undergone gentrification.
