Taking the Pulse: Gauging Neighbourhood Change in Toronto's Downtown West End
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
The goal of Taking the Pulse: Gauging Neighbourhood Change in Toronto's Downtown West End was to construct, administer, and analyze a household survey that will provide St. Christopher House (SCH) with a better understanding of the issues facing the residents they serve. This research was designed to address three main questions: • How do the residents perceive the changes occurring within the neighbourhood? • How are these changes affecting their way of life in terms of housing, commercial activity, new residents, and safety? • What can be done to respond to these perceived changes? This research allowed residents to voice their concerns and views about neighbourhood changes. These concerns and views will be translated into policy and planning recommendations for the city, as well as for SCH, the main social service provider in Toronto's West End. To inform this research, 108 surveys were completed in the South Parkdale, Little Portugal, and Niagara neighbourhoods. Sixty-two percent of those surveyed are homeowners, and 55% of respondents are between 35 and 65 years of age. Our sample presented a relatively high household income with 30% of the respondents earning above $80,000 a year. Our findings are divided into themes that address housing market, commercial activity, perceptions about new residents in the neighborhoods, and safety. These themes were defined by reviewing current literature on gentrification, consulting with our client and advisors, and assessing community concerns and demands. The changes occurring in the three neighbourhoods are indicators of gentrification. We believe that the three neighbourhoods are at different stages of gentrification. People are aware of the dynamics of the changes in housing and commercial activity and perceive that gentrification affects them both positively and negatively. The Niagara neighbourhood, compared to Little Portugal and South Parkdale, has undergone the greatest change in terms of commercial activity and the influx of higher-income residents.

We provide recommendations for SCH and the City of Toronto including suggestions for housing, local economic development, community-based adivities, advocacy, and safety. The findings of this report will provide the building blocks for a larger study on gentrification by the Centre for Urban and Community Studies and St. Christopher House and a bridge between the concerns of neighbourhood residents, SCH, and the municipal policy makers.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
