RE: Gentrification
You get a good indication by asking the new Gringos in town what they pay in rent. Where it used to be $300 - $500, it's now "we just got this fabulous deal for $800 - $1400". If one is dumb enough to pay it, soon everyone eventually has to. What do you say to them, "there goes the neighborhood"? Or do you just sink into depression that the wave is happening.

About 5 years ago I walked into a realtor's office in SMdA and asked to see the most inexpensive houses they had for rent. They showed me their lowest one starting at $1400 and I laughed at them. They said they would have the last laugh. But they didn't. I quit renting there.
