Not sure about how gentrification goes into homelessness, but I agree that it isn't a dirty word. Gentrification is amazing. It has bad outcomes when a neighborhood has low ownership numbers, but it's well within known risks for yearly renters. There are egalitarian ways to do gentrification ( mandatory affordable housing with low interest dibs for long term renters, x% new housing is rent controlled for 10 years so existing renters get a decade to plan their next move). Done right, it can be a win-win-win for new transplants, homeowners and long term rentals.
