Has your neighborhood suddenly been invaded by specialty coffee shops, "digital nomads," and rescue greyhounds? Congratulations, you've been gentrified. In this episode, we're joined by special guest Facundo Silvera, an urban economist who knows a little too much about why and how this global phenomenon is impacting Argentina. We talk about the changes in the local housing market, the ever-evolving identities of different neighborhood communities, and are quick to remind the "gringos" who have already ravaged Mexico City and Lisbon that maybe they should reconsider before taking over Buenos Aires. Sorry not sorry!
