Overview

Week by week, a township, once at the centre of a farming expanse, is steadily losing ground to the exploding metropolis known as the greater Phoenix area. Two-lane, dirt-shouldered, rough-paved roads are being annexed by entrance driveways to bedroom communities with alluring names such as Heritage Springs or Sunset Heaven. These vast areas of land are losing a battle against homogenised America, with residents forced out by inflated taxes and property prices. These photographs of Higley are an in-depth documentation of this micro-cosm of the effects of globalisation.
