Same here in Pittsburgh. A neighborhood called Lawrenceville. Little row houses owned by struggling mill workers in the 19th. Century. By the late 20th. it was a crime-infested rathole. I worked with a girl who lived there fifteen years ago, and always felt like I should follow her home after work to ensure that she made it OK.
Today it is gentrifying at breakneck speed. Millenial YUPPIE types with more money than brains are shelling out big six-figure numbers for those places.
Here the Seattle yuppie types are being robbed with predictable regularity. Tooling around on their bikes at 1am going to bars-BAM, local thugs get’em. Daytime armed robberies or their bikes vanish and their homes get broken into. Collectively they are slow learners, but individually some must be getting the picture. The local ferals surround those ‘funky’ gentrified shotguns and they see the clueless residents as prey.
