Abstract
Gentrification, a process of transforming working-class areas of a city into middle-class use, has increased in cities around the world. While researchers recognize the dangers of working class displacement in this process, the magnitude of dislocation is highly contested. In order to confront and address some aspects of this debate, a method is developed to measure gentrification-led evictions (one form of displacement), through secondary analysis of census data and previous studies of gentrification, using Toronto as a case study. This study finds that evictions happen in the beginning stages of gentrification, rather than in neighbourhoods that are fully gentrified. As neighbourhoods continue to become more gentrified, evictions decline and eventually disappear as vulnerable populations are filtered out and few of them are left in the area. A frontier of gentrification in Toronto is found in a group of contiguous census tracts with above average number of evictions that extends westward from the central city. Many neighbourhoods in this area house extensive vulnerable populations that are at risk of displacement.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
