Gentrification, or urban renewal, is the process of renovating and improving run-down urban areas, often resulting in increased property values and attracting new businesses and residents. This seems to be the case in Jonah's neighborhood, where the city is renovating buildings and providing tax breaks to encourage new businesses to move in. Conurbation refers to the merging of multiple urban areas into a single, larger one. Suburbanization is the outward expansion of urban areas into surrounding suburban areas. Urbanization is the general process of an area becoming more urban, with a higher population density, increased economic activity and infrastructure, and other urban features.
