Ernest Griffin and Larry Ford

Validity

Urbanization

Griffin and Ford were both geographers who focused on the construction of Latin American cities. After their research they worked together to make the Griffin Ford Model.

One real world example of the Griffin Ford model is Caracas, Venezuela. This city is one of the original that the model was based off of and it still applies today.

This model is used to show the combination of elements in Latin American culture and globalization by combining sector and concentric zone models.

Weaknesses

Perhaps the most recent weakness discovered is the Latin American cities undergoing gentrification to protect historical landscapes. These areas are usually near the CBD and the elite sector.

Strengths

This model fits both strengths of the sector model and the concentric zone model in into one and can be applied to multiple cities in Latin America.
