In 2022 the district included the southern half of Mecklenburg County and three-fourths of Gaston County County.

In 2022, the district originally leaned Democratic even though Gaston County is heavily Republican, the district's share of Mecklenburg County also had twice the population of the Gaston County portion. On October 25, 2023 the North Carolina General Assembly created and passed a new congressional map shifting the district's Cook Partisan Voting Index from D+6 to R+8 making it one of the most Republican districts in North Carolina{{Cite web |title=Congressional District Map with Counties and Cities State Link|url=https://www.ncleg.gov/findyourlegislators}}
