Amsterdam-West, is a borough and neighborhood located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Comprised of neighborhoods Oud-West, Westerpark, De Baarsjes and Bos en Lommer; West is currently Amsterdam's second most populous neighborhood after Nieuw-West; yet in terms of area is second smallest behind Centrum making West the densestly populated neighborhood in Amsterdam - Staatsliedenbuurt being its busiest area, followed by Van Lennepbuurt and Overtoomse Sluis.

Amsterdam-West can trace its history back to before 1940 when it was predominantly located west of Singelgracht. From 1858 on, however, access was available via Haarlemmerpoort, Zaagpoort and Raampoort on its western side. Outside the wall was predominantly farmland; however, along the Kostverlorenvaart there was also the "milling district", home to numerous industrial mills such as sawmills which supplied wood for shipyards at the IJ. In 1636, the plague house moved from its initial location in the city center to Overtoomse Vaart outside its gates, where pest patients would arrive via Pestsloot (now Bosboom Toussaintstraat). Over time, madhouse facilities were added, creating what eventually became known as Buitengasthuis and eventually Wilhelmina Gasthuis complex.

Amsterdam designated an area between Kwakerspoel and Lange Bleekerssloot (now De Clerqstraat) for industry and business use, including textile factories and bleacheries. With the decision to expand large in 1613 came an equally consequential decision to relocate all fire-hazardous industries there as well. Construction for Western city expansion began shortly afterwards with adoption by city council of Kalff plan. This plan called for the demolition and reconstruction of mills as part of an ambitious development scheme encompassing Spaarndammerbuurt, Zeeheldenbuurt (in part), Staatliedenbuurt, Frederik Hendrikbuurt, Kinkerbuurt and Overtoom neighborhoods as well as others that formed Stadsdeel West between 1990 and 2010. These neighborhoods included Oud-Westerpark De Baarsjes Bos en Lommer to form Stadsdeel West between 1990 and 2010.
