Yup. It is being revitalized without yet gentrifying. The "Chicano Clinic" was founded 50 years ago when locals took over Neighborhood House to set up access to health care and it has grown at the core of Family Health Centers (now with 35+ sites) and a  recently built a new huge multispecialty clinic in the neighborhood. Community activists are always fighting to curtail industrial and port pollution. Chicano Park (under the obnoxious Coronado Bridge on ramp is a national landmark (see photo). Las Quantro Milpas is oldest Mexican restaurant in the city and feeds you very well.
