Abstract

Awiligar is a highland that is a part of Dago hills. The weather and view have fascinated people and corporations to develop its tourism industry. There are five types of Familiar visitors namely, people who (1) migrated to Awiligar from old villages at the top of the hill, (2) traveled from other regions in Bandung, (3) assimilated into the region (i.e., past convicts, colonialists, high-class members of the Indonesian society), and (4) corporations who built the tourist industries and infrastructures (e.g., hotels, outlets, restaurants). Those investments of time, energy, and effort into the tourism industry can be referred to as gentrification. Gentrification is a process by which marginal urban neighborhoods are rehabilitated and revitalized by incoming middle- and upper-class residents. There are two impacts of gentrification in Dago. The first being overcrowding and the second being the changes in the work division in modern industry, especially in terms of family structures.
