Generally Tipis were used by nomadic plains tribes, such as the Blackfoot, Crow, Sarsi, Hidatsa, Omaha, Comanche, Teton-Dakota, Assiniboin, Cheyenne, Gros Ventre, Arapaho, Kiowa, Plains-Cree, Mandan, and Pawnee.
They needed a home that was easy to move.
There has to be a distinction between those tribes that always lived in tipi-style lodges (pure Plains tribes) and those that occasionally used tipi-style lodges when hunting away from their villages (marginally Plains tribes).

- Atsina
- Sarci
- Plains Cree
- Blood, Piegan and Blackfoot
- Assiniboin or Hohe
- Crow
- Shoshone
- Teton Lakota
- Cheyenne and Suhtaio
- Arapaho
- Jicarilla Apache
- Kiowa
- Kiowa-Apache
- Comanche
