Another word for gentrification, where they get enough people living somewhere to stab or shoot one another to move everybody out and buy the land cheap when it becomes a ghost town.
A lot of neighborhoods in Detroit and places like Detroit would have once been considered by some to be like what suburban areas are now, nice neighborhoods that had houses with lawns, outside of downtown and the business/commercial/industrial areas. The neighborhoods didnt really decline, they did get rid of a lot of people the same way they got rid of a lot of white people after World War 2 in the larger cities, and nothing and nobody replaced many of the people that left Detroit recently. A neighborhood that once was filled with Italians or Jews or another group might become a black neighborhood, but gentrification is the same no matter what the shade of skin of the people that live there, it is a human neighborhood.

Get the Decline mug.Decline is what happens in a mudslide, the land goes down the hill. A neighborhood sitting at the same elevation it was 50 years ago hasn't declined.
The houses began to decline in the mudslide, killing an old lady who lived at the bottom of the hill.
