“…In the Global South and East, revitalization and class remake of the central areas in Shanghai, China, and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil have also meant the displacement of low-income households to the city's outskirts (Arrigoitia, 2017;He, 2010). In resurgent declining cities, such as Berlin, Germany, relocations mostly occurred within the district or to nearby areas (Forste & Bernt, 2017). For example, Forste and Bernt (2017) found that when displaced households in East Berlin could not access appropriate and affordable housing in the district, they moved to nearby areas that featured a similar urban structure and character so that they could remain close to the "previous centers of their lives and to the location of their social networks" (p. 52).…”

In contrast, only a few Griswold tenants (n = 8) managed to remain in the neighborhood and 31% moved to adjacent neighborhoods, such as Midtown (see Table 2).…”

A growing number of studies have used evictions data as a way to address the methodological challenges to measuring gentrification-induced displacement. The spatial and temporal dimensions of evictions data enable researchers to potentially trace the movement of tenants over time. This article explores the role of evictions in gentrification-led displacement in Detroit, Michigan, by conducting a spatiotemporal analysis of eviction filings in the city between 2009 and 2015, and by addressing the question Where do displaced households go? This is a question that often goes unanswered in gentrification studies. Using a mixed-methods approach, this article documents the relocation of tenants from a project-based Section 8 building and traces the movement of tenant households out of a gentrifying downtown to the periphery of the city.

“…Other studies that come to similar conclusions have a more "hypothetical character". Förste and Bernt (2018), for example, analysed migration data for a gentrification area in Berlin and found nearby neighbourhoods to be the dominant destination of movers. The authors take this as an indication that displaced tenants try to find living space close to their old apartments unless soaring rent levels prevent it.…”

Forced displacement caused by development has become a global pressing issue. This article critically reviews the literature on urban displacement and discerns two divides, related to terminology and Global North-South divide. To overcome these gaps, we propose a new conceptual framework of urban displacement that positions the experience of being displaced at the center. By setting aside preconceptions based on terminology or the Global North/South divide, this article articulates five concepts encapsulating meaningful aspects of being displaced: power, positionality, eligibility, temporality, and resistance. This framework shows that while urban displacement has different economic, social, and political contexts, the experience of being displaced has shared global qualities.
