After the 2010 census, the number of Massachusetts’s seats was decreased from 10 to 9, due to the State’s low growth in population since the year 2000. This mandatory redistricting after the 2010 census eliminated Massachusetts’s 10th congressional district, and also caused a major shift in how the state’s congressional districts are currently drawn.Table of Contents       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Current districts and representatives[edit]History of apportionment[edit]Enumeration trends[edit]Historical and present district boundaries[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Further reading[edit]19th century[edit]20th century[edit]21st century[edit]External links[edit]Current districts and representatives[edit]List of members of the United States House delegation from Massachusetts in the 118th Congress, their terms, their district boundaries, and the district political ratings, according to the CPVI.

Before then, the district numeration was not as consistent; sometimes running east to west, other times going counter-clockwise around Boston.Historical and present district boundaries[edit]Table of United States congressional district boundary maps in the State of Massachusetts, presented chronologically.[5] All redistricting events that took place in Massachusetts between 1973 and 2013 are shown.The Commonwealth’s districts, as of 1796.The Commonwealth’s districts, as of 1842.The Commonwealth’s districts, as of 1891.The Commonwealth’s districts, as of 1901.See also[edit]^ The resident population excludes the overseas population.^ Congressional apportionment for each state is based upon (1) the resident population and (2) the overseas U.S. military and federal civilian employees (and their dependents living with them) allocated to their home state, as reported by the employing federal agencies.References[edit]^ “Office of the Clerk, U.S. House of Representatives”. clerk.house.gov.
