A French geographer has stated that the class and culture distinctions are less critical in regards to rises in the cost of living. Better to see whether the developers are circling. The real estate owners, in fact, come from every class. The artists who are all too often scapegoated (and mislabeled "hipsters&quot are usually renters and not in a practical position to raise rents. Many, in fact, will recycle a dubious industrial property and make it a home, only to be forced out by devdumpers.
