Get to Know Your City Council District
Who represents you? How has your district changed? And who are the neighbors voting with you?
New Yorkers went to the polls this fall to solidify a new City Council. The November general election followed the city’s June primaries where every one of New York’s 51 City Council seats was up for grabs — in newly redrawn districts.
In the city’s latest maps, some districts are almost unrecognizable, while others may have lost an airport, or gained a large housing complex full of voting-age adults.
In 2023, voters got the chance to pick a new representative in the Council, or reelect incumbents serving shortened two-year terms.
To help you understand your local district, we’ve created this guide, which will give you key information about your district’s candidates, demographics, and voting patterns.
