I mean, a lot of Baton Rouge has already gone through significant amounts of gentrification. Spanish Town was gentrified in the late 80's and 90's.
Capital Heights was all the rage in the 2000's and early 2010's.
Currently, the area along Nicholson between LSU and downtown is being gentrified.
The problem is that for every neighborhood that gets gentrified, two formerly decent neighborhoods age out and go to crap.

Same goes for New Orleans. Bywater used to be hood but is now a militant hipster haven. Freret and Irish Channel have done complete 180s demographics wise compared to the 90s. Even historic hoods like Treme and Pigeon Town are close to half white now. Unfortunately, Algiers has gone to shite and New Orleans East might be the most dangerous area of the country.
