Gentrification is the process in which wealthier groups move into older, rundown neighborhoods and renovate the buildings. This often results in higher property values and the displacement of the original, lower-income residents. Urbanization is the process of people moving from rural areas to cities. Consumption is the act of using goods and services. Transformation is a more general term that can refer to any kind of change. Malthusianism is a theory that population growth will outpace the resources needed to sustain it.
