This congressional district has changed configurations and locations many times throughout its history due to redistricting, initially starting out as an upstate constituency before gradually moving south. Beginning in the 1870s, it shifted into parts of New York City, where it has remained to this day.
In the 20th century, the 10th district was always a Brooklyn-based seat from 1913 until 1973, when that iteration of the district was redrawn and renumbered as the new 16th, and the 10th was reassigned to a district in northern Queens and the east Bronx. The 1980 redistricting cycle restored the 10th district to Brooklyn, covering largely the same terrain as before. In the 1990 remap, much of the old 10th district was added to the new Queens–Brooklyn 9th district, while the new 10th then absorbed much of the old 11th district, including its congressman, Ed Towns.
The 2010 map had a size of 14.25 sq mi (36.9 km2), New York's 10th district was the second-smallest by total area in the country, after New York's 13th.[5] Demographically, it also had the largest number (270,000) and the highest percentage of Jews (37.6%) of any congressional district,[6] largely as a result of the fact that it included several heavily Jewish neighborhoods of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Prior to the 2020 census, the district stretched from the Upper West Side of Manhattan to Borough Park.
^In New York State, there are numerous minor parties at various points on the political spectrum. Certain parties will invariably endorse either the Republican or Democratic candidate for an office; hence, where applicable, the state electoral results below contain both the individual party votes and the final candidate votes (listed as "Total").
