ABOUT EDGE CITIES
The term “edge city” was first used by Joel Garreau in his book Edge City: Life On the New Frontier, written in 1991.
Edge cities are defined as “satellite” centers of employment and shopping located away from the CBD of a city.
The monocentric model poorly explains their character; thus other models that explain polycentric behavior are needed.

OTHER EDGE CITY ANALYSES
Scheer and Petkov, 1998 – Looked at the physical landscape of various cities (qualitative approach)
Redfearn, 2007 – Looked at employment centers by local regression
Suarez and Delgado, 2007 – Looked at density gradients, as well as trip attraction flows
Adolphson, 2009 – Looked at floor area ratio (FAR) and levels of surrounding accessibility
Yue, Liu, and Fan, 2009 – Looked at land-use patterns within cities

METHODOLOGY Identify edge cities based on
five criteria developed by Joel Garreau. Edge cities must meet all criteria.
Compare 1990 and 2007 data for the Phoenix metropolitan area.
Square footage is based on employment figures within particular industries. One retail employee equals 945 square feet of retail space, while one office employee equals 387 square feet of office space.
Buffers were used to include all census tracts within a half-mile distance from dominant tracts in order to not underestimate edge city limits.

PHOENIX EDGE CITIES
![Page 13: Phoenix Edge City Analysis Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546b9a2ab4af9f6b2c8b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
CONCLUSION No “edge city” existed throughout the Phoenix
metropolitan area in 1990.
Four edge cities exist as of 2007. They include Biltmore, Uptown Phoenix, the Broadway Curve complex along I-10, and Scottsdale Airpark/Kierland.
Three other centers are close to edge city status. They include Metrocenter, Deer Valley, and Ahwatukee.
All edge cities have surpassed Downtown Phoenix in both retail space and office space.
Scottsdale Airpark/Kierland is the largest and most prominent edge city in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
