Geography [edit]

Before the 2002 redistricting, most of the territory currently located in the district was previously located in the 43rd Congressional District and 48th Congressional District, and the 49th District was located farther south, in what is now parts of the 50th, 52nd, and 53rd districts.

Before the 2012 redistricting the district extended further inland to include a portion of southern Riverside County and most of northern San Diego County.
