Haabersti is one of the 8 administrative districts (Estonian: linnaosa) of Tallinn, the capital of Estonia.
Haabersti is divided into 12 subdistricts (Estonian: asum): Astangu, Haabersti, Kakumäe, Mustjõe, Mäeküla, Õismäe, Pikaliiva, Rocca al Mare, Tiskre, Veskimetsa, Vismeistri and Väike-Õismäe.
The most populous part of the district is Väike-Õismäe, a residential area consisting of the big panel houses, which were mostly built in the 1970s. Lake Harku and an extensive beach area at Kakumäe and the Kopli Bay lie in the boundaries of the district. Since most of the territory has not been previously used for building, new areas with small residential buildings have developed in the last two decades.

She starts out motherly taking you out for tea.
You get you're drinks for free hey presto happy families!
Sometimes when she's not right she pulls her purse strings tight.
And then we get into a fight, we're losing her again oh!
The world is all she wants, never before has she needed us more.
Things used to be different when we were happy friends.
Even the times it was pretend, still happy in the end.
When did it all go wrong? Was it wrong all along?
When did we stop turning you on?
We're losing her again, oh!
