About

Tibbington is a residential area on the northern edge of Tipton in the Sandwell borough of the West Midlands. The neighbourhood is made up of 19th- and 20th-century terraces alongside pockets of post-war council housing, with a small parade of shops and a community centre serving local needs. A primary school sits within walking distance of most homes, and playing fields provide space for local football and informal recreation. Many streets end in short cul-de-sacs that open onto pedestrian paths, giving quick access to green space and cycle routes used by commuters.

Local bus routes link Tibbington to Tipton town centre and to other parts of Sandwell. The area is part of the Black Country's urban fabric: remnants of earlier industry sit close to residential streets and have been repurposed for light business and storage. Community groups run clubs from the centre and on the playing fields, and small local shops concentrate at the main road junction. Housing mix, nearby workspaces and short walking routes to town make Tibbington practical for people working across Sandwell.
