“…This model thus brings social diversity by imposed gentrification (Bailey, Miles, & Stark, 2004; Freeman et al, 2016; Heath, Rabinovich, & Barreto, 2017; Pissourios, 2014). In contrast, in bottom‐up/mixed models, authorities directly assure the regeneration of public places and buildings (Gainza, 2016; Padilla, Azevedo, & Olmos‐Alcaraz, 2014), but offer subsidies and/or fiscal incentives to owners assuring renewal of their decaying properties, and implement community consultation for supporting the creation of local jobs, helping fight poverty and stigmatization (Bettencourt & Castro, 2015; Oliveira & Padilla, 2017; Pissourios, 2014; Tulumello, 2015). This brings diversity by initiating small‐scale gentrification, that is, influxes of new residents of low‐medium income but higher academic qualifications than long‐time ones (Davison et al, 2012; Malheiros, Carvalho, & Mendes, 2012; Oliveira & Padilla, 2017).…”
