Gentrification, Urban Interventions, and...
The Gentrification, Urban Interventions, and Equity (GENUINE) Tool is a map-based gentrification tool for Canadian metro areas. The primary envisioned use for GENUINE is policy evaluation and research studies that assess the potential health and societal impacts of gentrification processes. Accompanying maps for each Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) are published online. The mapping platform simultaneously shows four gentrification measures for each CMA, facilitating comparisons between measures. We developed GENUINE to integrate gentrification measures relevant to the Canadian context, adapting four published gentrification measures that have been applied to U.S. and Canadian census data. We computed these measures for all 36 Canadian CMAs to illustrate where gentrification occurred between 2006 and 2016. The GENUINE data were developed by Caislin Firth, Benoit Thierry, Daniel Fuller, Meghan Winters, and Yan Kestens, as part of the gentrification workgroup of INTErventions, Research, and Action in Cities Team with funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. GENUINE measures have been developed using 2006 and 2016 census tract areas to identify areas that have gentrified by 2016. Please refer to the Technical Document for methods used to calculate each gentrification measure. GENUINE data were linked to all 2016 six-digit DMTI spatial single link postal code locations in Canada by CANUE staff. NOTE: all postal codes within a Census Tract are assigned the same value. Summing data is not appropriate. Original census tract data can be downloaded directly from links provided in the technical documentation.
