Amusingly, the (usually leftist) very first people to "discover' and move into the slum get very upset when other people are inspired by the improvements they made and follow after them to further enhance the neighborhood.
Don't leave out the end result. Gentrification is the opposite of block-busting. People would move into slums and make improvements. The improvements would raise property values and property taxes, driving out the low income residents who are eventually replaced by more affluent residents.
