Männiku

Männiku is a residential subdistrict in Nõmme featuring a mix of single-family homes, apartment buildings, and small shops spread across tree-lined streets. Green spaces are woven throughout the area, creating pockets of open space within the residential blocks.

The area developed in the early 1900s as Tallinn expanded outward from pine forests into organized residential neighborhoods. This gradual transformation shaped it into a planned suburban community that remains recognizable today.

The area reflects Estonian suburban living traditions, where single-family homes sit alongside modern apartment buildings. Residents use green spaces actively, creating a sense of community in the residential streets.

Several bus lines connect the area to central Tallinn, and a level crossing near Liiva train station offers additional transit options. The streets are flat and straightforward to walk, making it easy to navigate and explore on foot.

A social house operates in the area as a gathering place for neighborhood activities and community events. This building demonstrates how traditional community facilities remain important in modern suburban areas.
