About

Garretts Green is situated in the eastern part of Birmingham, primarily a residential suburb characterised by post-war housing estates and interwar semidetached homes. The area is defined by its practical layout, with local shopping parades serving the community's daily needs along Garretts Green Lane and Bordesley Green East. It functions as a settled residential zone with several schools and green spaces like the playing fields off Bordesley Green East providing recreational space for residents.

The ward contains the large former site of the Garretts Green industrial estate, which has undergone significant redevelopment in recent decades. This has introduced new business parks and modern commercial units, altering the local employment landscape. A notable local feature is the presence of the Birmingham City Football Club training ground, situated within its boundaries, which adds a distinct element to the area's otherwise domestic and commercial character.
