Tamworth's homes, by the numbers

Tamworth in the 2021 census: 32,895 households, 87% houses, 13% flats.

Tamworth is B77, B78 and B79 — Castle, Bolehall, Belgrave, Amington, Dordon, and out to Baddesley and Grendon. It is a district of Staffordshire, and like Redditch it shares the B postcode with Birmingham while belonging to a different county entirely. Ownership was 67.0% at the 2021 census with social renting at 18.0%. Tamworth expanded substantially under a town development agreement from the 1960s, taking overspill population from Birmingham, so much of the housing is of that period and sits on a concrete ground floor. The medieval core around the castle is the exception. Which side of that divide your property falls on decides whether you are checking a membrane or levelling boards.

Two kinds of floor share the same B postcodes. The estates that went up under the town development agreement, taking Birmingham overspill from the nineteen-sixties, usually sit on concrete; the medieval core around the castle does not. More homes here are semi-detached than anything else, detached come next, and most households own.

Heating finds the difference between the two Tamworths. Concrete warms slowly and lets go slowly, holding an even temperature through the day; the boarded floors of the old town by the castle follow the room instead, warm by evening and cold again by morning.
