The state's edge
20% 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 are Hispanic or Latino (50.4%). 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
