State Senate Districts: Santa Cruz County, California, 2015
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile depicts boundaries for Senate Districts 2 and 5 for the County of Santa Cruz, California. This coverage contains portions of Senate Districts 11 and 15, which reside within Santa Cruz County. This layer was created in response to the 2000 Census and the resultant redistricting of Senate Districts. Prior to this, Santa Cruz County was a single Senate District. The California State Senate is the upper house of the California State Legislature. Due to the state's large population and relatively small legislature, the Senate has the largest population per representative ratio of any state legislative house. This layer is part of a collection of GIS data created for Santa Cruz County, California.
