I have seen Harlem change a lot in the past four years since I moved into the neighborhood. I didn’t know about the whole thing behind its change until now that I learned about gentrification. Now I know more about how my neighborhood has changed. Back then I only used to see people of color and Hispanics — I barely saw any white people. But now there are people of all colors and backgrounds. There have been many changes in the community from the way it looks and what it has. There are more residential and commercial buildings. Trendy shops and restaurants are opened which consist of a variety of food and clothes, not only that but also health centers and more people as well.
