urban regeneration, housing, etc.
not sure what to cal this in English; here is a definition:
fenomeni di sostituzione sociale, dove gli interventi “migliorativi” generano un effetto di
espulsione degli abitanti residenti che non possono più permettersi di abitare quel luogo.

sounds rather like gentrification, but not sure that's quite the same.

social displacement
Sostituzione sociale it's similar to gentrification, but not exactly the same.
This might be another viable option, I think, even if I have a few doubts about the word "social", since social displacement also identifies a mental condition (if I am not mistaken).
Anyway, Rachel, take a look at the link, the first one is quite interesting.
HTH
Displacement is a change in the class composition of a neighborhood over time.

Luxembourg's recent history has seen much gentrification and increases in the prices of real estate in the city centre, which has lead to considerable social displacement.

social turnover
Just an idea - although "gentrification" was the first thing that sprang to mind.

social replacement
Although it may seem banal, social replacement is widespread on the web; iin my opinion, as you guessed, it really sounds just like a synonym for gentrification.

| Thak you Andrea - though I found in Google that "social replacement" seemed to refer to psychology in the family context, etc. - ? |
