ABSTRACT

Gentrification research is often based on aerial units that function as proxies for neighborhoods. Despite the applicability of this approach, the method is susceptible to the modifiable aerial unit problem that obscures sociospatial patterns of interest both within and across units. This research seeks to complement and problematize findings from aerial unit-based approaches to gentrification through the use of georeferenced temporal data representing two specific processes that are generally understood to occur in real estate-led gentrification processes: new multifamily housing development and displacement in the form of recorded eviction filings. Interrupted time series analysis is used to compare two time points in the development process for various types of new multifamily housing projects with different distance thresholds of recorded eviction filings in the City of Madison, Wisconsin. Findings demonstrate that large multifamily housing developments produce increased eviction filings within a small radius (a tenth of a mile).

摘要

绅士化研究通常基于充当社区代理的空中单位。尽管这种方法适用，但该方法易受可修改的空中单位问题的影响，该问题掩盖了单位内部和单位之间感兴趣的社会空间模式。这项研究旨在通过使用地理参考时间数据来补充和质疑基于空中单位的绅士化方法的发现，这些数据代表了通常被理解为房地产主导的绅士化过程中发生的两个特定过程：新的多户住宅开发和形式上的流离失所记录的驱逐文件。中断时间序列分析用于比较威斯康星州麦迪逊市不同类型的新多户住宅项目的开发过程中的两个时间点，这些项目具有不同距离阈值的记录驱逐文件。调查结果表明，大型多户住宅开发会在小半径（十分之一英里）内产生更多的驱逐申请。
