Like any song, I think it can mean and/or have meaning for whatever the listener interprets. If you live in the Wild West, the West End, the West side of any country or region, that can be taken personally and adapted to the individual's own experience. Probably it does have meaning for Knopfler but even that is from his own personal life experience, which likely has no relevance to any other person.
