History

2020 redistricting

Following the 2020 census and the subsequent 2020 United States redistricting cycle, California lost a congressional district, leading to significant changes across California's districts. Most of the area previously part of the 18th district was split into the new 16th district and 19th district. The 18th district was moved to cover the Salinas Valley in Monterey County and the downtown and east side of San Jose. With the changes, the 18th became a Latino majority district.[5]

2010 redistricting

Following the 2010 census and the subsequent 2010 United States redistricting cycle, California's 18th congressional district was redrawn by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission. Cities and CDPs in the district include Palo Alto, Stanford, Los Altos, Woodside, Mountain View, Los Altos Hills, Campbell, Saratoga, Los Gatos, and Scotts Valley; most of Menlo Park and Redwood City; and part of San Jose.

2000 redistricting

Following the 2000 census and the subsequent 2000 United States redistricting cycle, California's congressional districts were redrawn by the California State Legislature. From 2003 to 2013, the district was located in the San Joaquin Valley. It included Merced County and portions of San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Madera, and Fresno counties. Cities in the district included Modesto, most of Stockton, Ceres, Atwater, Merced, and Los Banos.
