Michigan's 38th House of Representatives district (also referred to as Michigan's 38th House district) is a legislative district within the Michigan House of Representatives located in parts of Allegan, Berrien, and Van Buren counties. [2] The district was created in 1965, when the Michigan House of Representatives district naming scheme changed from a county-based system to a numerical one. [3]
The district was an ultra-marginal seat after the 2018 elections, with Representative Crawford winning re-election by just 588 votes. [4]
