The process you are describing is known as **gentrification**. Gentrification occurs when wealthier individuals or developers buy properties in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods, renovate them, and often increase property values. This can lead to the displacement of long-term, lower-income residents who can no longer afford to live in the area due to rising rents and property taxes.
Urban blight refers to the deterioration of a city or urban area, often correlated with economic decline, but it doesn't encompass the property investment and renovation aspect involved in gentrification. Urban hearth refers to the original centers of civilization and urban development in history, while industrialization relates to the transition to an industrial economy, neither of which specifically addresses the dynamics of wealthier individuals moving into and transforming economically disadvantaged neighborhoods.
