South Tel Aviv is in Tel Aviv.When referring to "South" Tel Aviv, people commonly mean the part of Tel Aviv which is south to Yehuda Halevi and Harakevet streets - excluding Jaffa which is considered a separate part, although it is also "below" those streets. South Tel Aviv has been neglected for decades, rendering large parts of it an industrial urban wasteland. However, since the early 90s, and following a massive housing price increase in central Tel Aviv, an excelerated gentrification process has changed the face of many areas in south Tel Aviv - as many artists, students, and eventually middle-class and in some cases upper-class families moved in. Another factor greatly affecting South Tel Aviv's character is the influx of migrant workers from Africa, China and Southeast Asia, whose presence diversified the area significantly.
