Inner City

A baby sleeps in a corner of a home in a squatters village in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The alleyway where the home is located is inhabited by approximately 55 people, including many school aged children too poor to attend classes. Each family pays roughly $20 per month for these shacks to various landowners in return for squatting rights. The slum is located less than a block from Phnom Penh's main tourist strip.
