You should check out Burnside Gorge in Victoria BC. Between the City of Victoria's entire stock of Homeless shelters (in this one neighbourhood) and the city's entire stock of Sikh temples, Punjabi restaurants and East Indian clothing and grocery stores, it is a total sh*tpit - where people can't sleep at night because the Sikh punks are racing their cars up and down Burnside all night. Any whyte people who can, move out - leaving only the poorest, who can't afford to move, the homeless and the Punjabis.
Uses us-vs-them framing ('whyte people' vs Punjabis/Sikhs) and describes neighborhood decline through ethnic demographic lens, with secondary fear/threat elements about safety and displacement.
