The #London2012 project is often accused of #gentrification, but if there was ever place that needed more prosperity it is the area around Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. But could it become more prosperous without simply displacing local communities and replacing them with more affluent newcomers? Comparison of #census data from 2011 and 2021 sheds some light on how local populations have changed, though it doesn't track individuals or determine causation. A few findings: •Rapid population growth and turnover - particularly in immediate Park hinterland (and throughout Tower Hamlets), but less so further east; •Sharp rise in qualification levels and home ownership, but also an above-average rise in the lower-qualified and socially-renting population - suggesting that change may be as much about addition, as about wholesale displacement; and •A growing white and mixed-race population, but slower than average growth in black and Asian populations - and less improvement in employment rates for these communities. Read all about it in my piece for OnLondon.
