Tower Hamlets, Wandsworth and Newham experienced the most gentrification of any of the London boroughs between the years 2010 and 2016, a new study has found. Research carried out by think tanks the Runnymede Trust and CLASS showed that housing became less affordable in these areas during this time as middle-classes buyers snapped up property. Meanwhile, Havering, Bexley and Bromley were the London boroughs to least be affected by gentrification.
