Gentrification of trailor parks and elderly apartment complexes seems
to be the latest rage among speculative real-estate investors.  The
interesting thing here in Florida is how this wave of speculation
proceeds gradually, so that you might read of, say, one trailer park
and one elderly retirement rental complex a year in any given region
that was sold out from under its now displaced residents.  If I were a
conspiracy theorist, I would say that the timing is deliberate to
avoid alarming the elderly, who might otherwise organize and resist
this trend.

There is an article on this subject, with information about how the
ownership of trailer parks, for instance, has been shifted to speculators,
at the following URL: <http://www.hcn.org> .  This is the site of an
internet newspaper called the `High Country News', named for its location
in the Rockey Mountains.
