It depends on what degree it's happening in a city. For instance, in Cleveland only a tiny handful of neighborhoods are gentrified to a large extent and there is no shortage of affordable housing available (if fact the opposite is the main problem...). Cleveland could use a whole lot more gentrification because close to half of the city is abandoned.

I could also see if being a problem in heavily gentrified cities in that rent becomes too high.

I guess the thing I don't understand in the mindset of the people who oppose gentrification is where should the rich people live? If they live in the city it's gentrification but most of the people who'd oppose that also oppose suburban development.
