As the United States is getting more diverse, the opposite has been happening in American cities over the past decade. In some cities, local governments have invested more money in public infrastructure such as parks and transportation to attract residents as developers have built new upscale apartment buildings. Based on an analysis of census data by The Post, Marissa Lang and her colleagues took a closer look at four U.S. cities to understand the different ways that gentrification is changing life for residents.
One of these cities was Denver, where Marissa spent time with politicians and residents who are fighting to prevent displacement and heard about what it\\u2019s been like to see their city change rapidly in shape and demographics.
