Bangadeshi migrants started to move in, creating a cultural mix
The area has been gentrified recently

today, 73% (nearly three quarters) of its population is not white British.
Shoreditch has quite a young population, due to the number of internal migrants
many Bangladeshis are moving out as the result of the increasing house prices caused by gentrification
gentrification gave rise to nightlife and entertainment 0 a wealthier lifestyle.
