History
Permament settlement of Akureyriball started in 1778, and eight years later he was granted his municipal charter by Denmarkball. Denmarkball hoped that such action would improve living conditions within Icelandball, but Akureyri's population still dwindled at 12. Thus, Akureyriball lost his municipal charter in 1836, but regained it during 1862.

Since WWII, Akureyriball's population began to grow significantly, as people migrated from the countryside to urban areas. Fishing industries also began to become more important to his economy, providing a major source of revenue.
