Florida Congressional District Boundaries for the 119th Congress

Geographic shapefiles for Florida's congressional districts as defined for the 119th Congress, seated from January 2025 to December 2026. The data is an extract from the U.S. Census Bureau's MAF/TIGER System, designed to be a seamless national file. Boundaries reflect state-provided information as of May 31, 2024.

Use Cases

• Map Florida's congressional district boundaries for the 119th Congress using polygon geometry.
• Analyze geographic coverage and identify areas assigned the 'ZZ' code where districts were not defined by the state.
• Combine this Florida shapefile with other state extracts to create a national map of congressional districts.
• Study the spatial distribution of districts following the decennial census-based apportionment.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative U.S. Census Bureau MAF/TIGER System, ensuring national topological consistency.
• Boundaries are current for the 119th Congress, reflecting state-provided updates as of May 31, 2024.
• Shapefiles are part of a national series designed to be used independently or combined for full U.S. coverage.

Limitations

• Specific record counts, file sizes, and detailed attribute columns are not provided in the input.
• In Connecticut, Illinois, and New Hampshire, participant-defined districts do not cover the entire state, using a 'ZZ' placeholder code.
• The dataset is static for a specific congressional session and may not reflect mid-decade boundary changes.
