February 12 – The Geography of Gentrification and Residential Mobility
For several decades, scholars have examined and debated the causes, extent, and consequences of gentrification. One of the key issues discussed is the association between gentrification and residential mobility. Join the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard and Hyojung Lee, a former Center post-doctoral fellow who is now a faculty member at Virginia Tech, for a presentation of new research that examines these questions by using national, individual-level microdata to compare mobility outcomes for individuals living in gentrifying neighborhoods with similar individuals living in neighborhoods that are not gentrifying. The event will take place on Friday, February 12 at 12:15 p.m. EST.
