Tallinn's largest district by population, around 119,000 people in Soviet-era panel blocks east of the centre, and the other district named in the city's youth crime-prevention programmes. No visitor attraction and no reason to be here — this is where people live, not where they stay.

Frequently asked questions
Is Lasnamäe safe?
Wandroz currently rates Lasnamäe in Tallinn as an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report during the day and roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Tallinn at night. This comes from a structured local-source assessment: an area-level review of credible local sources — local and national news, municipal and police-published material, and official surveys where they exist — consolidated across sources rather than taken from a single report. Tallinn publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does, Wandroz uses it instead.
Is Lasnamäe safe at night?
At night, Lasnamäe is rated as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Tallinn. If you're unsure, it's worth checking recent local reviews for your specific street or block, since a neighbourhood-wide rating can't capture block-by-block variation.
Is Lasnamäe a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Lasnamäe's day rating (an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report) is the more relevant one for typical daytime tourist activity; check the night rating too if you'll be out late. Note that the Booking.com link on this page searches Tallinn, not Lasnamäe specifically: Booking does not list this neighbourhood as a destination of its own, so check each property's address against the map above.
Is there official crime data for Lasnamäe?
Not an official government crime feed — Lasnamäe's rating comes from Wandroz's own current local/national press and survey research for this specific area instead (see the note on this page for what was checked and the sources used). An absence of recent negative coverage is treated as inconclusive, not as proof the area is safe. If you live in or know Lasnamäe well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
