Population and geography
[edit]The district's boundaries changed on April 29, 2011 to adjust for population changes measured by the 2010 U.S. Census of Population, so that each district would have about 80,000 residents. The changes reduced the size of the part of the district east of Charlottesville and just around the city, and expanded it toward the northwest.[2]
