Tapton is a suburb of Malton, located in the south of the city. It has always been fairly unremarkable, save for the annual Tapton Parade and for having the 3rd most populace of all suburbs. There are rumours that the zombies still celebrate this tradition, shambling in step up and down the suburb's central belt of roads while waving marrow-dripping femurs.
Curious survivors may wish to visit the historic Merewether Monument.
When not overrun by zombies, St. Emelia's Church hosts a karaoke night every Saturday. So far, none of the neighbours have complained.
Suburb Overview
Western Tapton: The West is usually rather sparsely populated with survivors, probably because it lacks a police station and is a fair distance from any mall. The Chaffin Building (Tapton's only NecroTech facility) is a popular target of the walking dead, as are St. Matheos's Hospital and Sherston Grove Fire Station. 87H is the chief zombie presence in this area. By travelling Southeast from Western Tapton you will come across Pole Mall. It is recommended for new players starting on the Eastern side of Tapton to loot it. Note: Check the wiki pages of the areas and local radios to make sure it's clear first as West Tapton has been known to be dangerous.
Central Tapton: Due to a relative absence of resource buildings and an abundance of open land, the numbers of undead in the central region of the suburb are usually moderate, though Swithun General Hospital is often subjected to zombie assaults. The good people of Phil's Freaks have been known to entertain deanimated guests at the Bainton Arms, so passersby needn't panic if they happen upon a lone zombie sipping an ale.
Eastern Tapton: The location of Haag Plaza Police Department (the suburb's only PD), as well as its proximity to Pole Mall, makes Eastern Tapton an attractive neighborhood for survivor groups. Alpha Elite Squad, the Renegades, and Ständige Vertretung all maintain a presence in the region. Of course, the large supply of brains in the area often attracts zombie hordes as well. Another hotspot for zombie hordes is the Whittaker Boulevard Fire Station of which still holds a few key items in Taptons's rundown town.
Revive Points: Rhodes Park [41, 73] has reopened for business and is now an active revive point in Western Tapton. Dix Place [46, 75] is still Tapton's main revive point though and service there will usually be quicker and more consistent. A zombie's best chance for revivification is to post a request at http://tinyurl.com/zwor5 . Check the "News" section below for updates.

The Militant Order of Barhah has ruined all the TRPs, and is now opening the rest of the suburb. Many buildings seem to have only one survivor inside, it appears that many have wisely fled the suburb. Food is scarce, the MOB contemplates moving on to greener pastures. -- Grogh 01:33, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Zombies are all over Tapton. Most of East Tapton is destroyed, including Haag Plaza Police Department, St. Luke's Hospital, Morrhall Drive Fire Station, and others. There are currently 15 zombies waiting for a revive in Dix Place. Zombie hordes can be seen throughout. May need to up the danger level to Very Dangerous. No entry points nearby. We may need to wait for MOB and friends to move on. -- Acidcj 13:18, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Zombies have defeated the barricades at Priestly Street Fire Station, the Crang Building, and Haag Plaza Police Department. Groans were heard emanating from those buildings. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
February 25
MOB and friends have overrun Swithun General Hospital, and Morrhall Drive Fire Station has been attacked. Over a dozen resting survivors were torn to pieces by ravenous zombies, but not before a particular fledgling zombie was "fed" 9 kills to bolster his experience. Ten survivors remain inside at this time. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
February 24
MOB has attacked Chaffin NT, St. Matheos's Hospital, and Sherston Grove Fire Station. Additional zombies are coming in from Greentown at this time. Tapton is no longer safe. At this rate, most TRPs are going to get attacked within 48 hours. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
February 20
There have been confirmed sightings of MOB zombies in Greentown. A growing number of feral zombies have been seen there as well. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)

The western area of Tapton is in ruins. Several dozen zombies are breaking into TRPs. Definitely not a green suburb. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
January 5
Sporadic break-ins continue in northern areas of Tapton. Swithun General Hospital was ruined again, as was Cullingford Road Railway Station. StäV has been busy fighting the dozen or so zeds that keep breaking in. At this time, it is not safe to rest in these buildings. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
January 1
A dozen zombies have taken over Swithun General Hospital. -- ReclusiveYeti (StäV)
