About

West Bromwich North is an electoral ward in Sandwell Metropolitan Borough in the West Midlands, covering the northern part of West Bromwich. The area is mainly residential, with a mix of council and private housing, local shopping parades, primary schools and community centres. Streets move out from the town towards suburban pockets and small clusters of commercial activity. Day-to-day life is centred on neighbourhood facilities rather than a single town hub, and routine travel is largely by bus.

Local provision includes small parks, playing fields and community halls used by voluntary groups and churches. Secondary schools, larger retail and rail stations are accessed outside the ward but are within short travel times. West Bromwich North is one of Sandwell’s 24 wards and returns three councillors to Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council; elections are held by thirds. Public services are delivered through the borough council and local partnerships focused on housing, streets and youth provision.
