This was a good introduction to a topic that I'm vaguely aware of but not fully informed about. 

Incredibly thoroughly researched.

I enjoyed the book, but would not recommend audiobook format as the book has significant numbers of notes which I couldn't access at the right time in the audiobook format!

I really enjoyed this book, it put a lot of the things I've been thinking about my own neighborhoods into words with examples and first hand accounts. I wish there had been a bit more focus on how to combat gentrification (2 chapters out of 9), but i suppose part of the issue is that there haven't been that many successful actions to stop it (though the accounts she did list were really inspiring).
