Today Grafarvogur comprises eight sub-districts of which five - the Rimi, Hamrar, Borgir, Víkur and western Fold subdistricts - fall within the boundaries of historic Gufunes estate.

Shopping

Grafarvogur currently has one medium-sized shopping centre called Spöngin. It's not a mall in itself but a cluster of stores, Hagkaup being the largest. Also there are small clusters of stores in Hverafold, by Víkurvegur and Langirimi Streets. Those are much smaller and contain only a few stores, the supermarkets being the largest of the few.
