Brooklyn 'Gentrification'

[RattlerGator]

Stephendare, your substantive (not) contribution to this thread is noted. I think my point has been clearly made and proven. No gentrification problem or issue in Jax. In a bow to lastdaysoffla, development fits and starts and inevitable displacement? Yes. Yes, also, to vicupstate. Strider's post, however, begs the question not of government involvement but precisely what type and how much -- doesn't it?

If you looked at Governing Magazine's February 2015 piece on gentrificaion and examined their Duval County map:

http://www.governing.com/gov-data/jacksonville-gentrification-maps-demographic-data.html

there, we're told the census district bounded on the north by 103rd Street, on the east by Blanding Blvd., and on the west and south by the I-295 west beltway gentrified between 2000 and the present. Likewise, the 8th Street area of Springfield near I-95 (? ? ?) and an area just south of that in downtown.

What?

Patently absurd and obviously a map incentivized to call for more government, somehow. In Big Duval, this gentrification stuff is clearly an issue in search of a problem and finding none.

Obviously.

Obviously.

Talk about jumping to an unsupported conclusion.
