The Alibon ward lies in the north of the London borough of Barking and Dagenham, just to the north‑east of Barking town centre. It is largely residential, with many interwar and post‑war council‑built terraces and semi‑detached homes associated with the development of the Becontree estate, interspersed with small industrial units, local shopping parades and pockets of green space.
The neighbourhood has a diverse, multicultural population and a strong community feel, with schools, community centres and faith groups playing an active role. Recent regeneration projects have focused on improving housing and local services and on creating jobs, while good road and rail links - including nearby Barking station into central London - make it a practical base for commuters alongside a traditonal local high‑street character.
