Spatially displaced demand and the changing geography of house prices in London, 1995 - 2006. - 2009 - Housing Studies 24(3) May 2009, 301-320 .

Discusses the effects of increasing high incomes and gentrification in inner London on the home ownership market. Examines the average London house price by borough, finding that the top-priced boroughs remain the highest priced and the lowest-priced boroughs remain at the bottom over the entire period. One change is noted: the gap between between the highest average price and the lowest average price has closed. Considers explanations for these changes.
