Tividale could be one of the best places to live in the Midlands, but unfortunately it still suffers from the same type of urban sprawl that is swallowing towns and suburbs whole. Along with this growth you get the usual, sadistic thuggery and moronic lifestyle attributable to so much of this region.. after all, places like Tividale owe their existence to the blood and toil of the sweatshop. Most of the large factories may have disappeared; however the metal-bashing mindset remains. The locals are actually proud of this, for some benign reason. Pretty soon Tividale, like the towns surrounding it, will be nothing more than an extension of Smethwick, or Birmingham. A multi-cultural cesspit. The government wants it this way, as it keeps people in their place..
