Where to live in Tallinn: how would you describe each area?

For anyone deciding where to rent, the district names come up constantly
but it is hard to find plain descriptions written for newcomers.

We are drafting a neighbourhood guide covering Kalamaja, Kadriorg, Nõmme,
Põhja-Tallinn, Vanalinn and Mustamäe.

If you live in (or have lived in) any of these, we would like to hear:
- What it is genuinely like day to day
- Who it suits, and who it does not
- Anything you wish you had known before signing a lease

Short answers are fine. One honest sentence from someone who lives there is
worth more than a paragraph from us.
