Mile End is an inner western suburb of Adelaide, located in the City of West Torrens, around 2 kilometres from the Adelaide city centre. It has a census area population of 4,413 people (2011). Much of the suburb is residential, but there are small commercial areas along Henley Beach Road and South Road. == History ==
Mile End was originally established in 1860 as ''The Town of Mile End'' by the South Australian Company. It was so named because the township was approximately one mile from the centre of Adelaide. It was also named after Mile End in east London, England, whose name has a similar meaning.〔(City of West Torrens ) Suburb History〕 It was part of the then largely rural District of West Torrens until 1883, when the residents of the more urban suburbs of Thebarton, Mile End and Torrensville successfully petitioned to become the Corporation of the Town of Thebarton.〔Payne, P. (1996): ''Thebarton, Old and New.'' Thebarton City Council. ISBN 0 646 30157 8〕 In 1997 the Town of Thebarton re-amalgamated with the City of West Torrens.〔(City of West Torrens > Local history > Story of West Torrens ) Accessed 28 April 2014.〕 Mile End railway station, built in 1898, is also one mile from the Adelaide railway station.
