Some of the neighborhoods in Oakland reach from the "flatlands" neighborhoods which include the historically working-class areas of West Oakland, North Oakland, Fruitvale, and East Oakland up into the foothill districts (Grand Lake, Lakeshore-Trestle Glen, the Glenview, Lincoln Heights, the Laurel, Redwood Heights, Dimond, Maxwell Park, Eastmont, and Millsmont), and into the high hills communities (North Hills, Hiller Highlands, Upper Rockridge, Montclair, Ridgemont, Grass Valley, Sequoyah Hills.) Several flatland neighborhoods are considered trendy and are gentrifying rapidly (Rockridge, Temescal, Piedmont Ave., Adams Point, Lake Merritt.) Downtown neighborhoods include the Loft District, the Waterfront, Old Oakland, Chinatown, and Uptown. The character of these neighborhoods continues to change as waves of immigrants from within the US and other countries relocate here for a more liberal lifestyle and the changing economy lures more technically skilled workers.
