The City Areas
The Reykjavík Capital Area is the country's largest and most populated city and is currently home to 245.000 people (Sept 2022), that's two-thirds of the entire Icelandic population!
Not many foreign travellers know that 6 different municipalities combine the capital area. These municipalities are Kópavogur, Hafnarfjörður, Garðabær, Mosfellsbær, and Seltjarnarnes. Although each town has its own administration, they co-operate on things like transport, keeping them all well connected.
