DISCUSSION POST 1:
Climate Gentrification
The city of Miami is experiencing increased flooding in beachfront properties and people residing in higher elevated areas are worried that they will soon be run out of their communities. Quite some time ago, purchasing property and houses on beaches and coastlines might have been attractive but as higher temperatures increase evaporation which leads to generally increased precipitation and greater risk of coastal flooding, more people living on the coast are starting to realize that they are living on borrowed time. Those trying to sell property will find that the market for houses on the coast are beginning to dwindle.
Once affluent communities will sooner or later have to relocate. The residents of communities living in higher elevation don’t need to worry about flooding but they are worried that richer coastal residents will push them out of their homes. “The historically black neighborhoods in Miami were built west of the railroad tracks along a limestone ridge, seven to 10 feet above sea level. White communities were built in the flood-prone and low-lying coastal areas near the beach and waterfront views. Now the city’s black neighborhoods are starting to see signs that their higher elevation is attractive to developers and investors,” (Green). In regards to the centric zone model, the coastal communities likely would fall under zones D and E (put probably E) and the elevated area would likely fall under zone C. Real estate and property developers realize the attractiveness of non-flooding communities and are beginning to redevelop the not so rich areas to better attract wealthier residents from the coast. If that continues to be the case, then property values and rent will increase as well and the previous communities of people will likely be driven out to the flood-prone communities or to another city entirely.

DISCUSSION POST 2:
During the pandemic of 2020, many new Yorkers have put their houses on the market and have planned a new life elsewhere. There was a 44 percent increase in home sales in the suburban areas surrounding New York city. Properties in Manhattan NY went down 56 percent in 2020. People leaving the city and moving into neighboring areas will no longer be required to give their money to city taxes which will hurt the cities economy. I find this so interesting because I myself want to leave queens new York and move upstate or into long island. I feel that the people who are running the city have no clue what they are doing and they are hurting people’s way of living. As many people that live in new York feel like moving is the best way to survive I believe the same. I want to have a family, be able to enjoy life, and living through these hard times it seems the best place to be is anywhere other than a city.
