N2  - Cities all over the world are adapting their neighbourhoods for climate change. This is done using more greenery, better quality greenery or lowering the nuisance it creates. While these adaptations are necessary for creating safe and quality environments to live in, recent studies argue over the risk over gentrification in the less affluent neighbourhoods. This phenomenon is called green gentrification and causes the rise of housing prices, which misplace communities to other places, due to the improvement in urban environmental quality in neighbourhoods. This research analyses two different neighbourhoods in Leeuwarden. Heechterp-Schieringen a less affluent one, which has a high number of social housing from the social housing agency in Leeuwarden and Aldlân, a more affluent neighbourhood which holds a high number of homeowners. This research answers the question: How can Leeuwarden avoid green gentrification initiated by climate change adaptation policies and measures? The question is answered using qualitative interviews from residents of the neighbourhoods and the social housing agency. In addition, a policy analysis about Leeuwarden current climate change adaptation plans is performed and to identify the drivers of green gentrification a literature review is conducted. This led to 3 possible alterations and addition Leeuwarden can use to limit green gentrification in Heechterp-Schieringen. These include, different incentives for neighbourhoods dominated with rental housing, better collaboration with the social housing agency to ensure the social housing are below the social housing threshold and provide more neighbourhood specific approaches as both neighbourhoods need different tools to properly adapt.
