About this episode

This episode discusses the challenges of improving neighborhoods without displacing current residents due to rising costs.

The challenge is how to improve a neighborhood for the people who already live there, without accidentally pricing them out of their own homes. The social success of an intervention often becomes its greatest real estate threat.
