"East End" means the east end of london, generally regarded to be east of the medieval walled city of london and north of the river thames. It is one of many casual words teens pick up from friends, social media, music or sport, and on its own it carries no particular warning. If you hear your teen use it, it is fair to ask what they mean by it in their friend group, since meanings drift quickly. Asking out of curiosity rather than alarm tends to keep the conversation open and useful.

"East End" is informal English meaning the east end of london, generally regarded to be east of the medieval walled city of london and north of the river thames. It is mainly heard in British English (and Irish English). A more formal or neutral equivalent would be something like "the east end of london" expressed in standard vocabulary. A common mistake is to assume "East End" can replace its standard equivalent in every register; keep it for spoken or casual situations and use the formal form in writing.
