I'm not saying any of these things aren't fine. I'm just saying it's important that higher income people actually recognize that they are higher income, where for any economic issues they may be facing, others have it much worse.
Anecdotally, one of the biggest problems I've seen long time urban residents have with gentrifiers is they don't make any effort to get along with the existing residents, and participate in the long time culture of the neighborhood. Through recognizing one's wealth, they would better understand that they are in the position of power, and should be more of their responsibility to integrate with the existing community than the other way around.
