Abstract: Logistics has a significant impact on gentrification processes, as it facilitates the transformation of urban areas by improving connectivity and access to essential services, can lead to the arrival of large commercial chains and the modernization of local services, which transforms the cultural identity of the community and exacerbates social tensions between new and old inhabitants. The objective is to analyze the scientific production related to the impacts of logistics on gentrification processes. A quantitative type of research was developed, based on a retrospective and descriptive study, with a bibliometric approach, in the SCOPUS database during the period from 1987 to 2024, without language restriction. The behavior of the research was heterogeneous, with a predominance of research articles with 39 in the area of social sciences. The most productive country was the United States with research that directly influences the transformation of urban areas and the dynamics of the housing market. Two lines of scientific research related to residential segregation and its effects on the health of Caucasian adults and gentrification and its effects on the housing market in urban areas were identified. Logistics significantly impacts urban gentrification processes by improving connectivity and access to essential services, attracting new, higher-income residents and transforming the community's cultural identity, which poses challenges in terms of equity and social sustainability
