The problem is a lot of us want at least proper compensation for our losses.
You should look up Chavez Ravine. Many residents there were screwed over when they created Dodger Stadium.
They weren't given compensation.
I under stand the need for change but it needs to be gradual and smoother.
I was born in a trailer park in Compton. I'm native.
Yes, I know those areas. You don't go there after dark. And probably not a good idea to go there during the day.

No worries.
I do have to have to say that Hollyweird no longer produced a lot of great caliber TV shows and Movies anymore though like the ones in the past.
Now most movies are remakes and sequels and a lot of TV shows are showing trash like Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

There are some great and beautiful parts of California I love. There are also some absolute arm pits that are totally disgusting and putrefied. Like San Francisco and LA and Hollywood. For those who have never been to Hollywood it is one bizarre and f'd up place. You can just feel the negativity permeate the air in that town.

I live in Eagle Rock and while yes I'm aware of Gangbangers or cholos as Latinos call them in places like Compton, part of this has a lot of to do with widespread poverty among Hispanic and African American communities.
By displacing the lower class residents, your only moving the problem elsewhere.

I specify that I'm referring to Liberal Elites and Regressive Leftists and not ordinary liberals.
Look Anne, a lot of the people that hated them came from Ethnic minorities and many of us are not Conservatives.
A lot of us also have liberal views but have problems with Liberal Elitists screwing us over left and right.
