gentrification

When uppity white people move into a ghetto and take over the real estate, which fucks over the current residents. Usually followed by the opening of a shit ton of Starbucks, Nordstroms, and Whole Foods.

Uppity white mom: excuse me, where can I find kale and quinoa around here?
local resident: fuck, this gentrification shit needs to stop

Gentrification

When you buy a house that hasn’t been painted in 30 years and finally put some paint on that thing.

All these yuppies are contributing to gentrification in my neighborhood with their mid-century gray tones and turquoise accents.

Gentrifier

What people who have lived in a place for more than 5 years call people who have lived in a place for less than 5 years.

"This neighborhood used to be so real before all those gentrifiers moved in." (Generally said by someone who grew up in the suburbs, probably in a different state).

Gentrification

Gentrification is when businesses and homes are built in shitty, run-down neighbourhoods, which means the people who live there will actually have to work for a living if they want to pay the rent instead of beating up and mugging old ladies.

Hey man, you can't mess with our hood, that's gentrification! Wait, you're leaving? That's white flight, you stupid ass crackkka! Racist!

gentriputrification

The ultimate destruction of a once vibrant and socially varied neighborhood by yuppies, first time flippers and speculators. A deadzone of residents losing their homes to sky high rents and mortgages. Everyone but the roaches are priced out but with nowhere to go. Renters and store owners escape but homeowners rot. Creates a "yuppie ghetto endgame."

Now, thanks to gentriputrification, the neighborhood is so beyond ruined, there's no one left but Starbucks and they're leaving too.
