How different a region is from the next! I have miles of tile under my small farm, dad used tosurvey when tile machine was 'new' around here - before that it was dug in by hand.
Should have another mile or so put in....
Anyhow, the tile need to drain to somewhere - ditch or county tile. You get assessed taxes for the ditch.
There are little slots in the plastic tile to allow water to drain into them. Plastic tile are often 4, 5, 6 inched is diameter. Can be bigger.
Before plastic there were concrete tile. And still are, for bigger sizes. Think going up to 2 feet is common. Old days a lot of 6 and 8 inch tile was run.
Before that clay tile were laid. Just a baked clay tile.
The cracks between the concrete or clay tile allows the water in.
