Gentrification
(as defined by Merriam-Webster)
the process of renewal and rebuilding accompanying the influx of middle-class or affluent people into deteriorating areas that often displaces earlier usually poorer residents  

After listening to public opinion on local talk radio, gentrification is one issue which will polarize the Youngstown community.

Have any of the candidates for Mayor of Youngstown expressed their views on the process of gentrification?
