Arizona 2010 Census Selected Statistics

Redistricting Plan:    Current Congressional and State Legislative Districts

Definitions

Federal law requires districts to be of equal population. To calculate the Ideal Population size for a district, divide the state's (resident) total population by the number of districts in a legislative body.

Federal law requires districts comply with the Voting Rights Act. An indicator if a district is protected by the Voting Rights Act is if it's minority voting-age population is above fifty percent of the total voting-age population. The Census Bureau allows persons to declare that they are one or more of five races. Black Voting-Age Population is the total number of persons of voting age who indicated that they are African-American in one or more combination of race. In the tables below, this is also expressed as a percentage of the total voting-age population. The Census Bureau asks a separate question if a person is Hispanic. Hispanic Voting-Age Population is the total number of persons who indicated that they are Hispanic. Native American Voting-Age Population is the total number of persons of voting age who indicated that they are Native American in one or more combination of race. In the tables below, these numbers are also expressed as a percentage of the total voting-age population. Note that because the Census Bureau asks these two questions on race and ethnicity separately, these two categories are not mutually exclusive, for example, a person can be Black and Hispanic.
