The 2nd congressional district has been associated with the north-central Lake Michigan shoreline region since the 1992 redistricting. There have been some changes, but it still covers in general the same area.
Prior to the 1992 redistricting the 2nd district covered the northern half to two thirds of Livonia, Northville Township, the Wayne County portion of the city of Northville, Plymouth and Plymouth Township all in Wayne County. It also covered most of Washtenaw County, Michigan but not Ann Arbor or Ypsilanti. The only county entirely in the district was Hillsdale County. Most of Jackson county was in the district, but the some of that county's northern tier townships were in Michigan's 6th congressional district. About half of Lenawee County was in the district, and the far north-east portion of Branch county was also in the district.
In 1992, this district essentially became the 7th district, while the 2nd was redrawn to take in much of the territory of the old 9th district.
