Early in the district's history, it stretched from the southern Dallas-Fort Worth suburbs all the way to Houston's northern suburbs. As Houston and DFW grew, the district shrank gradually northward, reaching its current boundaries today.

The 2012 redistricting process removed all of Trinity, Houston, Leon, Freestone, and Limestone counties from the district, while making the district more compact in southeastern Tarrant County.{{Cite web |title=DistrictViewer |url=https://dvr.capitol.texas.gov/ |website=dvr.capitol.texas.gov}}
