Resumo(s)
The last two decades have witnessed a growing trend towards
transit-oriented development (TOD) as a critical approach for
achieving sustainable mobility. However, some analysts and
community activists have expressed concerns that TOD could
induce gentrification and potential concomitant low-income
group displacements. This paper presents a systematic review of
35 quantitative research-based studies presenting evidence on
gentrification outcomes resulting from transit-based interventions,
published between 2000 and 2018. To our knowledge, this is the
first systematic review on this topic and thus provides a useful
synthesis of current empirical evidence on transit-induced
gentrification. Although there is some evidence supporting the
transit-induced gentrification hypothesis, methodological flaws
render many of the studies’ conclusions highly questionable. The
findings suggest that gentrification is more closely associated with
existing local dynamics, built environment attributes, and
accompanying policies than transit-oriented development. In its
critical analysis of research approaches, this paper warns that the
incorporation of several sources of bias into study designs may
engender a number of misinterpretations, thus ultimately leading
to misguided conclusions and policies.
