    It’s not “gentrification”, it’s a lack of supply to meet demand. “Gentrification” is a word invented by NIMBYs to shut down conversations about housing densification.

      Gentrification: the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process.

      It literally is gentrification. And yes they are NIMBYs too. It’s both. It’s the same coin.
