Nevada District 1

9 Very compact

Less compact than 4% of other congressional districts.

414th least compact of 429 nationally, 2nd of 4 in Nevada.

A score describes shape, not intent. Coastlines, rivers and the Voting Rights Act can all make a district irregular. How scores work

The three measures

Polsby-Popper: 0.44at least as compact as 92% of districts on this measure
Area compared with perimeter. Low for jagged or snaking edges.
Reock: 0.65at least as compact as 86% of districts on this measure
Area compared with the smallest circle around the district, counting only land. Low for stretched shapes.
Convex hull: 0.93at least as compact as 95% of districts on this measure
Area compared with a rubber band stretched around the district, counting only land. Low for bites and tentacles.

Each measure runs from 0 to 1, where 1 is a perfect circle or a shape with no dents.

The state's edge

23% of this district's border is the state's edge: a coastline, a national border or a state line. Mapmakers don't choose those lines. A ragged one, like a coastline or a river, lowers Polsby-Popper. Reock and convex hull count only the state's own land, so water and neighboring states don't count against them. More on the state's edge

Who lives here

Most of this district's voting-age residents (56.1%) belong to minority groups. The largest are Hispanic or Latino (32.2%), Black (10.9%) and Asian (10.0%). The Voting Rights Act can require districts that keep a minority community together so it can elect candidates it prefers, and those districts can be irregular on purpose. A district like this isn't necessarily drawn for that reason, and the site doesn't know whether this one was. Figures are from the 2020 Census. How these are counted

2024 presidential vote

Kamala Harris 51.2%, Donald Trump 48.8%

Shares of the votes for the two of them; other candidates are left out. Nevada used the same lines in 2024, so this is added up from precinct results. A precinct split between districts is divided by its House votes, so the figures are close estimates. Where the votes come from

U.S. House

Dina Titus, Democrat

Elected November 3, 2026, takes office January 3, 2027.

Unofficial results from the Nevada Secretary of State, checked November 6, 2026. A race shows a winner once news decision desks have called it. Results become official when the state certifies them. Where this comes from

Nevada's senators

Jacky Rosen, Democrat

Senators are elected by the whole state, so district lines don't change who they are. Senators serving as of November 6, 2026. Senators elected in November 2026 take office January 3, 2027. Where this comes from
