Understand

In recent years, the neighborhoods in these areas have undergone rapid changes. What used to be occupied by low-income Hispanic families has now become a vibrant and trendy part of town. Skyrocketing rents and the increasing cost of living have pushed a younger population eastward, towards the heart of Los Angeles.

As property owners renovate and raise rents, new and hip restaurants, as well as boutique shops, are popping up regularly. This transformation has led to a displacement of the immigrant communities further east and south in search of more affordable housing.
