Arguably the worst town in Devon, if not all of the South West of England.

Statistically the most inbred place in the UK, it is full of alcoholics, pound shops, and chavs. Lots and lots of chavs.

Tiverton has been voted as one of the worst places to live in the UK in the past, which is well deserved.
Dave: You ever been to Tiverton mate?
Chris: I don't think I have
Dave: Don't: it is one of the most horrid settlements on planet earth.

Referring to Tiverton, Rhode Island, located between Fall River, Mass and Acquidneck Island.
Tiverton is also known as "Tiv-Unit." referring to the number of "gangstersss" in town.
Since the town is small (only 12 miles long) theres not much to do except party.
In the summer, the local teenagers take it upon themselves to call up a 21 year old for a "Packie" run, and head out to the beach where they light campfires and drink their beers.
98% of the under 21 population in Tiverton smoke pot.
Mostly inhabited by rich preppy snobs, in crisp golf clothes, the current population is 15,200.
There are 3 elementary schools in town (Pocasset, Fort Barton, and Ranger), one Middle school (TMS), and one high school (THS).
Town pride is, of course, Tiverton Tigers Basketball.
The Tigers rival has been the Portsmouth Patriots for as long as the high school has been open.
Some local landmarks in Tiverton would be Evelyn's Clam Shack, the Four Corners, and Gray's Ice Cream.
Everything knows everything about everybody in this town, so if you want to keep something secret... don't move here.

Townie: "Keep Tiverton green! Say no to commerical development! Say no to the mall!"

Tiverton's most finest have for the majority originated from Nonquit School (R.I.P). However T.M.S is where all the schools came together. and it got real scandalous. Schools such as Ranger and Poccassett, taught the wholesome kids of Nonquit dirty words, how to grind, and about recreational drug use. Lets face it Poccassett is straight up trashy. TMS is where some of us had our first slow dance or lost our virginity at the Friday night dances. while a certain bald man sat on the stage and tried to peak down girls shirts. Nelly OWNED middle school dances and the drama was comparable to the OC. We all loved those awkward years. Upon graduating from TMS and completing our finals years of puberty we were all a little more bad ass upon entering THS. What can we say, stabbings? bomb threats? mold? random evacuations?
One glorious day though, the clouds opened up and the heavens shined down on little Tiverton. And there was HESS express. where friends meet. a meeting place for when parties are broken up by the cops or to grab some mixers or some gas on your way to cruise the Ave.
Its believed that beer pong actually originated in Tiverton and if thats not true we sure were raised on it. Theres nothing like skipping classes on a hott day and heading to a friends house while there parents are at work for a quick game. And if that's not an option head over to Grenells where you can find condoms burried in the sand.
And what about the infamous Mr. Cody or Mr. Gettzinger. They've supposidly had their obituaries posted in the newspaper about 50 times. Seriously.
There's nothing like senior year in Tiverton though. The non-stop threats of breathalizers at every possible event, the lame senior pranks that always result in arrests, the yearbook profiles which every year the kids get a little more creative in finding a way to sneak in their favorite drugs or alchol example: fresh powder, the captain, baking. We've all had a run in with everyones favorite principal but you're never really sure if its you he's yelling at with his crazy eyes. So after graduation pretty much everyone goes to URI where its a THS reunion 24/7. But every summer we come back and start new scandals and its guarenteed that every week you'll know at least one person in the police reports. And if you're one of the few that doesn't go to URI be sure to hit up a Badfish concert where you'll see 85% of you're class most of them will end up on the stage at one point of the night. There are more random hook-ups at a Badfish concert than prom night. It's straight up dirty.
So if you're an unsuccessful jock, a gossipy bitch, a poser stoner, dress in rennassance clothing, looking to go pro in BP, or just don't fit anywhere else, come to Tiverton. its so random.

located in Rhode Island, its a Ghetto little neighborhood/ town near Fall River, New Bedford and Portsmouth. Shitty roads, dangerous alleys, don't come here. Rising diversity thanks to an influx of Filipino and Colombian immigrants in recent years, portuguese are the highest ethnic group, comprising like 90 percent of the pop.
you best be strapped when you come to the T.I.V.

Them niggas in Tiverton are crazy mutha fuckas

A place where the most interesting thing for 12 miles in every direction is the Dunkin' Donuts, and where all the poor saps from Little Compton are forced to go to school. Most of the guys think they are gangsters, most of the girls are slutty, and all of the public schools are bad. There is however, a very nice Italian Restaurant called Nonni's, and Evelyn's, which was on television. Problem: everything is expensive and closes at 8:00. The residents are known as Tivertonians.
Person: I wanted to go out last night, but it was 8:03, and in Tiverton, there is nothing to do.
Person 2: Really? I just went to the skate park and watched a drunk boy get hit by a car.
Note: That really happened. He didn't die, though.

A small town in RI where, as already noted the children all smoke pot and the parents interfere with the coaching, but what you may not know is that everyone either lives in a McMansion or a trailer-park and the parents think the way to educate their children is to undermine the schools and the schools ask for it by hiring predatory males as behavioral specialists...just to make quota. The only critique of the previous posts/definitions is that the locals were called tall Portuguese gentleman... tall and gentlemanly may be stretches, but in general all these definitions have remarkable accuracy and point to the the strength of internet democracy experiments such as Urban Dictionary and Wikipedia: Good job all!
Hey, check out that small, redneck town in the middle of nowhere...what a Tiverton!
