Historical district boundaries

From 2003 through 2013, the district consisted of many of Orange's south-central suburbs, including Irvine, and Newport Beach. Due to redistricting after the 2010 United States Census, the district has moved south east along the coast of Orange and now includes Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach.
