Many neighborhoods in U.S. cities that were once predominantly black and poor have become largely white and middle class. The process of gentrification has fundamentally changed neighborhoods—and metropolises—throughout the United States. Using in‐depth, in‐person interview data from black and white young adults in two Buffalo, New York, neighborhoods, we seek to more fully develop the economic, social, and cultural explanations that draw new residents to such neighborhoods. The racial and neighborhood comparisons also allow us to make sense of gentrifiers’ residential and housing choices. Several themes are developed from the data including neighborhood popularity, cost, and diversity. The data also reveal two types of gentrifiers: mindful and perfunctory. Mindful gentrifiers include residents who think about their socioeconomic footprint and issues such as displacement; perfunctory gentrifiers are more generally concerned with the amenities of a neighborhood. As city planners, social scientists, and others seek to improve the outcomes associated with gentrification, debates will benefit from detailed insights about young adults’ residential decisions.

“好邻居城市”中的绅士化:布法罗的种族,阶级和邻里

在美国城市中,许多曾经是黑人和贫困人口的街区已经变成了白人和中产阶级。高档化的过程从根本上改变了整个美国的社区和大都市。我们使用来自纽约州布法罗两个社区的黑人和白人年轻人的深入面对面访谈数据,力求更充分地发展将新居民吸引到这些社区的经济,社会和文化解释。种族和邻里的比较也使我们能够理解绅士的居住和住房选择。根据数据开发了几个主题,包括邻里受欢迎程度,成本和多样性。数据还揭示了两种类型的绅士化:正念和敷衍。正念的中产者包括考虑自己的社会经济足迹和流离失所等问题的居民;敷衍的绅士更普遍地关心附近的便利设施。随着城市规划人员,社会科学家及其他人寻求改善与高档化相关的结果,辩论将受益于对年轻人的居住决策的详细见解。
