Whittier has a huge Hispanic population, largely illegal. So, all those rental properties are turning into newly gentrified neighborhoods. Sounds like a positive thing to me.
I hear you, but it's not happening just yet. So many of those rentals in the once-beautiful Uptown were the crummy garage conversions, big boxes, etc. The city finally cracked down a number of years ago, but we're still stuck with them.
Anyway, I guess I'm not going anywhere soon.
