Gentrification and Pioneer Businesses
研究了城市中绅士化热点如何出现，以及某些类型企业（主要是文化和创意产业）在预测社区变化中的作用，发现这些企业能补充传统绅士化决定因素的预测能力。
Abstract Little is known about where hotspots of gentrification emerge within a city and the role that some types of businesses play in the process. We develop a method to detect the sectors whose presence heralds the process of gentrification in a neighborhood. We show that these sectors, mostly found in cultural and creative industries, help to anticipate neighborhood change and that their predictive power complements that of traditional gentrification determinants. We also examine mechanisms related to amenities, worker characteristics, and signaling that are consistent with these results. The analysis illustrates the importance of businesses in the sociodemographic dynamics of neighborhoods.
