城市不平等的空间结构有多根深蒂固？虽然最近的讨论提供了相互矛盾的答案，这个问题，缺乏长期的，纵向的邻里数据削减直接检查的问题。以丹佛市为重点，我们开发了一种新的策略，用于分析从1940年到现在的邻里动态。我们对这些数据的分析揭示了1940年至2016年期间社区收入排名的惊人持续性，这似乎是由白色高收入社区在社区等级中的持久地位所驱动的。当低收入社区的收入排名确实上升时，我们发现变化往往在空间上集中在城市的特定区域，并在更广泛的城市变化历史事件中加速。我们的结论是，丹佛的邻里不平等已经持续了很长一段时间，并通过更广泛的城市景观的重大变化。关键词：绅士化，地理信息系统，不平等，邻里，空间人口。
How entrenched is the spatial structure of inequality in cities? Although recent discussions provide conflicting answers to this question, the absence of long-term, longitudinal neighborhood data curtails direct examination of the issue. Focusing on the city of Denver, we develop a new strategy for analyzing neighborhood dynamics from 1940 to the present day. Our analysis of these data reveals surprising persistence in the income rank of neighborhoods between 1940 and 2016, which appears to be driven by the enduring position of white, upper-income places at the top of the neighborhood hierarchy. When low-income neighborhoods do rise in income rank, we find that change tends to be spatially concentrated in specific areas of the city and accelerates during broader historical episodes of urban change. We conclude that neighborhood inequality in Denver has endured over long periods of time and through substantial shifts in the wider urban landscape.
