Gay villages often contain a number of gay-oriented establishments, such as <a href="/wiki/Gay_bars" class="mw-redirect" title="Gay bars">gay bars</a> and pubs, <a href="/wiki/Gay_nightclub" class="mw-redirect" title="Gay nightclub">nightclubs</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gay_bathhouse" title="Gay bathhouse">bathhouses</a>, <a href="/wiki/Restaurant" title="Restaurant">restaurants</a>, <a href="/wiki/Boutique" title="Boutique">boutiques</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Bookstore" class="mw-redirect" title="Bookstore">bookstores</a>. </p><p>Such areas may represent an <a href="/wiki/Gay_friendly" class="mw-redirect" title="Gay friendly">LGBT-friendly</a> oasis in an otherwise hostile city or may simply have a high concentration of gay residents and businesses. Some areas are often associated with being "gay" cities or resorts, due to their image and acceptance of the gay community. </p><p>Much as other urbanized groups, some LGBT people have managed to utilize their spaces as a way to reflect their cultural values and serve the special needs of individuals in relation to society at large. Today, these neighborhoods can typically be found in the upper-class areas of a given city, like in Manhattan, chosen for aesthetic or historic value, no longer resulting from the sociopolitical ostracization and the constant threat of physical violence from <a href="/wiki/Homophobia" title="Homophobia">homophobic</a> individuals that originally motivated these communities to live together for their mutual safety. </p><p>These neighborhoods are also often found in working-class parts of the city or in the neglected fringe of a downtown area –  communities which may have been upscale historically but became economically depressed and socially disorganized. In these cases, the establishment of an LGBT community has turned some of these areas into more expensive neighborhoods, a process known as <a href="/wiki/Gentrification" title="Gentrification">gentrification</a> –  a phenomenon in which LGBT people often play a pioneer role.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This process does not always work out to the benefit of these communities, as they often see <a href="/wiki/Real_estate" title="Real estate">property values</a> rise so high that they can no longer afford them, as <a href="/wiki/High-rise_building" class="mw-redirect" title="High-rise building">high-rise</a> condominiums are built and <a href="/wiki/Bar_(establishment)" title="Bar (establishment)">bars</a> move out, or the only LGBT establishments that remain are those catering to a more upscale clientele.
