Building these district profiles was no small feat. We matched up thousands of Census block groups with the boundaries of Ohio’s new legislative districts and then matched those districts with thousands more data points from the U.S. Census Bureau. This resulted in a fact sheet for each of the 132 legislative districts, 99 in the House, 33 for the Senate, using both research and public policy knowledge. We’ve included demographic information about each district, as well as district-level data on employment and income, poverty, education, housing, and health.
