This is a complete list of congressional districts for representation in the United States House of Representatives. The quantity (apportionment) and boundaries (redistricting) of districts are determined after each census, although in some cases states have changed the boundaries more than once per census. This list includes the 435 current and over 200 obsolete districts. For example, since the 2000 census, Nebraska has had three districts, but it used to have as many as six. In the first decade of the twenty-first century, Texas had 32 districts, but has since added four due to reapportionment as a result of the 2010 census. Other states have lost districts since the number of congressional seats has been set at 435 by statute. Also included here are non-voting delegations: six current and four obsolete.
The boundaries of districts often shift with each redistricting. Over time, the region and demographics represented in a district can change substantially. Furthermore, districts sometimes retain the same boundaries while changing their district numbers.
See Non-voting delegations, below.
From 1813 to 1823, Delaware had two representatives — both chosen at-large on a general ticket from the same state-wide district.
Until 1820, Maine was part of Massachusetts. After the 1810 census, Massachusetts was allocated 20 districts. Seven Massachusetts districts (then numbered 14 through 20) were credited to Maine soon after it became a state in 1820. See District of Maine.
Texas's districts were redrawn after the 2000 census for the 108th Congress and again in 2003 for the 109th Congress (see 2003 Texas redistricting). On August 4, 2006, the map changed again because the 23rd district and its surrounding districts had to be redrawn for the 110th Congress.
This list includes the 435 voting districts, along with the District of Columbia's non-voting delegation.
