West End, known historically as Kurilpa meaning “place of the water rat,” developed from Aboriginal camps to a settled suburb with heritage sites such as the West End State School and many 19th‑century buildings. The area was one of Brisbane’s first to have a tram line (1885) and retains a mix of historic and contemporary architecture.
According to the 2021 census, West End had a population of 14,730 residents. The suburb is a diverse, inner‑city community with a strong multicultural character.
