Tullytown was founded and laid out by one of the area's earliest settlers, Thomas Riche, and thus, first named 'Riche Town.' The boro was established as a municipality in 1891 from parts of Falls and Bristol Townships. A post office had been in operation since 1829. It is not known when the name was changed to Tullytown — the name appears on Bucks County map of 1817.

The Borough is located in lower Bucks County along the Delaware River. The Borough includes a number of unique historic and environmental features including the Delaware&Lehigh Canal and its towpath, Martins Creek, Franklin Cove, and portions of Levittown and Van Sciver Lakes. The Borough is divided by US Route 13 (Bristol Pike) with the area southeast of this route primarily comprised of older pre- World War II homes while the residential homes to the northwest are part of the 17,000-home Levittown, constructed in the mid-1950s. The other major land use in the Borough is the Tullytown Resource Recovery Facility which opened in 1988 and occupies a large portion of the eastern section of the Borough.
