The concept of gentrification has been extensively used in post-socialist
context in association with neighbourhood renewal processes, despite the exact meaning of
the term and its social effects not always being sufficiently clarified. This paper builds upon
empirical research from downtown Budapest. Our investigation primarily focused on the
interplay of three groups of stakeholders involved in urban renewal: politicians, investors and
residents. On the basis of our multi-dimensional analysis, we could identify three main types
of upgrading: classical gentrification (with two sub-types), as well as incumbent upgrading
and soft forms of revitalisation. In the studied neighbourhoods, a mixture of these forms
of upgrading could be identified, reflecting a diversified rejuvenation. Gentrification was
spatially limited to poverty ridden neighbourhoods subject to local government organised
regeneration programmes. The predominance of soft forms of revitalisation is a function of
housing market mechanisms as well as the planning control of local districts, which in general
together create a healthy social mix despite pervasive regeneration activities.
