Gentrification in San Antonio: Community Conversations at St. Mary's University
This document is a presentation by Christine Drennon exploring the possibility of gentrification occurring in San Antonio. It discusses gentrification as "the process by which higher income households displace lower income residents of a neighborhood, changing the essential character and flavor of that neighborhood". The presentation analyzes data on home sale prices and demographic changes in certain San Antonio tracts between 2000-2012, finding that some tracts experienced large price increases and shifts to higher-income, more educated residents. Maps show tracts where price increases were among the top 15% countywide or consistently high over multiple years.

Ban on gutkka and cigarettes
Gutkha contains known carcinogens and is banned in several Indian states due to its link to oral cancer. However, enforcement is lax and manufacturers find ways around the ban by selling raw materials separately or smuggling gutkha from unbanned states. A nationwide blanket ban with strict enforcement could more effectively reduce gutkha use and availability, especially among vulnerable groups like women and children. However, banning cigarettes may not be as feasible given they are not classified as food, represent a major tax revenue source, and are not banned worldwide like gutkha. Instead, increasing tobacco taxes and simplifying the tax system could help reduce cigarette consumption in India.
