Straightrification

What is Straightrification?


1.

When traditionally gay neighbourhoods attract straight tenants and property holders, driving out long time residents of the community or increasing the property values to the extent that the average gay person can no longer afford to live there.

"Local residents were upset that many businesses were closing and moving to other neighborhoods due to the straightrification of the traditionally gay area."
