Until recently, urban restructuring based on gentrification was common in the Netherlands. This kind of intervention is based on the demolition of part of the existing social housing and the construction of new housing. This has consequences in the social composition of the neighbourhood since the number of people with less purchasing power decreases, the number of people of “non-Western” origin increases at a slower rate and, in turn, the local middle class population increases. This article deals with the case of Europarei, its problems and the way it is being faced. It is estimated that the restructure will be completed by 2020. ; Hasta hace poco la reestructuración urbana basada en la gentrificación estaba a la orden del día en Holanda. Este tipo de intervenciones se basa en la demolición de una parte de la vivienda social (de alquiler) existente y la construcción de vivienda nueva (en su mayor parte de compra), lo que tiene consecuencias en la composición social del barrio ya que el número de habitantes de menor poder adquisitivo disminuye, la cantidad de habitantes de origen “no occidental” aumenta a menor velocidad y a su vez aumenta la población autóctona de clase media. En este artículo se habla del caso Europarei, su problemática y cómo se está enfrentando. Se calcula que su reestructuración se redondeará en 2020.
