"Revealed: the gentrification map of London"


Link to Evening Standard

"The most detailed 'gentrification map' of London ever produced has revealed how the gritty East End has prospered while the leafy outer suburbs have suffered a social decline over the past decade.

"It shows a remarkable reversal of fortunes in 21st-century London with inner-city areas such as Stratford, Bethnal Green and Canning Town gaining at the expense of the 'Metroland' fringes once rhapsodised about by Sir John Betjeman.

"The map, drawn up by researchers at estate agency Savills, marks areas that have moved upmarket in red, and those that have suffered 'reverse gentrification' in blue."
