Migrant workers and the homeless aren't included in those stats, and if there's one thing migratory Californians are good at it's genociding those groups
The only way that's relevant to an increase in cost of living and taxation for the working class is through taking on debt in the houses or the sale of housing.
House ownership used to be way higher in gentrified areas.
yes, the historically disadvataged people of montana with their thousand acre farms will be slightly financially inconvenienced by some slightly more privileged libs moving into their lands. i mean, really, this is hardly gentrification. let’s be real.
Just because you don't know what gentrification is doesn't make it fake.
Gentrification primary mechanism is the raising of house prices, a factor you somehow consider to counteract gentrification because everyone in"Fly over" states are wealthy landowners. This in spite of similar poverty rates and a lower median income than the places that can experience gentrification.
The median income in Montana is 3000 dollars lower than California. Cost of living is obviously a factor, but don't be ridiculous
property ownership rate is way higher and cost of living is way lower, though.
And what do you think would happen to that cost of living if a bunch of people with California tech wages moved there
Price would increase but so would property values. Again, Montana has a near 70% homeownership rate, nearly 13% more than California.

:visible-disgust:
you’re forgetting the context that most people in Montana are landowners

Tbis is just a mind boggling take.

Gentrification is literally defined by the restructuring of urban spaces and Montana….lacks those.
