California's 49th congressional district, Congressional district in Southern California, United States
California's 49th congressional district runs along the coast between northern San Diego County and southern Orange County. The territory covers numerous coastal towns and extends from the ocean to the inland hills.
The current boundaries took shape after redistricting in 1993, when parts of the former 48th district were reassigned. Since then, the territory has changed several times through census counts and political reforms.
The area sits right on the Pacific and covers coastal communities shaped by surfing, swimming and beach walks. Many residents spend their leisure time at the beaches, which have defined life here for generations.
Anyone wanting to find out which district their address belongs to can enter it on the congressional website. The site shows current legislative activities and contact information for the representative.
The military base Camp Pendleton occupies a large part of the district and provides training facilities for thousands of soldiers. Travelers on Interstate 5 often see tanks and military vehicles moving between training grounds.
