The 41st district currently includes most of the wealthy, majority-white parts of the Coachella Valley, including the cities of Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, and La Quinta. The district then stretches through the sparsely inhabited regions of the San Jacinto Mountains before taking in the vast majority of Corona and its sphere of influence, including Norco, Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake, and portions of Eastvale. The edges of the district also stretch further south to take in portions of the Perris and Temecula Valleys, such as Menifee, Wildomar, and small portions of Murrieta. The representative for the 41st is Ken Calvert, who was redistricted from the 42nd district.
The district is considered a swing seat, and the 2024 race was rated as a "Toss Up" by the Cook Political Report, although a Democrat has not won election in this seat since redistricting.[3]

Historical district boundaries
editSan Diego County
editIn the 1980s, the 41st congressional district was one of four that divided San Diego County, formerly located in the North County region. The district had been held for 12 years by Republican Bill Lowery and was considered the most Republican district in the San Diego area. The 41st district was renumbered as the California's 51st congressional district after the 1990 U.S. census in which it became the Inland Empire's 51st.
San Bernardino County
editFrom 2003 to 2013, the district included large portions of the cavernous San Bernardino County and a small portion of Riverside County. The district formerly represented parts of the Inland Empire region, San Bernardino Mountains, and Mojave Desert, stretching from portions of the city of San Bernardino north to the Nevada border and east to the Colorado River. Redlands was the largest city in that district; other cities included: Loma Linda, Yucaipa, Victorville, Barstow, Hesperia, Highland, Big Bear Lake and Needles.
