Erdington stands as a distinct suburb within the city of Birmingham, situated in the West Midlands. Its location is approximately five miles to the northeast of the city centre, sharing a border with Sutton Coldfield. The area experienced considerable growth during the Victorian period, particularly following the introduction of the railway line connecting it to Birmingham in 1862. Erdington was officially integrated into Birmingham in 1912. The population of the ward, as recorded in the 2021 census, stands at 21,550 residents.
