- Description

"Eastside" is a colloquial geographic designation used to refer to the eastern portion of a specific city, region, or metropolitan area, often carrying local socio-economic or cultural connotations. In regional slang, it frequently distinguishes a specific community's identity or 'territory' from the 'westside' or other districts. The term is used by locals to establish a sense of place or to describe the expansion and influence of one area over another. It can imply a certain lifestyle, demographic, or even a sense of 'colonial' expansion when one wealthy area begins to dominate a neighboring peninsula or suburb.
