Los Angeles Gentrification - Northeast LA or Inglewood area?
Northeast LA(NELA)/ Downtown vs Inglewood/South Bay --as far as "gentrification areas" within LA County.
Are you guys hotter on the Inglewood area or Northeast LA/ Downtown Los Angeles?
Inglewood is closer to the beach cities and West-side, which are already high cost/high demand areas. But I see so much building going on in downtown and spreading to the East side/NortheastLA (future "hipsterville" areas?) that I'm kind of hotter on the future of Northeast/ Downtown outskirts.
I feel that anything that affects Downtown LA will have immediate impact on NELA.
The Northeast LA/ downtown area also have future projects like the Los Angeles River Revitalization, and a new convention center. There are high-rises under construction on every street corner of LA, which could have direct impact on cities directly surrounding Downtown.
What do you all think as far as desirability, future appreciation, potential of NELA vs Inglewood/(east of LAX) area?
(disclaimer-After re-reading my post I am a bit biased towards NELA, as that is the area I've been researching recently. What's funny is I own and started in the South Bay, but I don't have as much knowledge of the area north of Torrance)
