A total of 91% of residents in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur are satisfied with the municipality as a place to live. Satisfaction with services for families with children and the elderly has increased the most, as well as with nursery and cultural affairs.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The results of the service survey provide an idea of residents' satisfaction with certain aspects of the council's services.
