California's 18th congressional district is a congressional district located in the U.S. state of California. The district is currently represented by Democrat Zoe Lofgren. Since the 2022 election, the district is landlocked and includes all of San Benito County and parts of Santa Clara and Monterey counties, including Salinas, Hollister, Watsonville, Gilroy, Soledad, and downtown and eastern San Jose.[3]

Due to the presence of Silicon Valley, the district had[when?] a median household income of $149,375, the second highest of any congressional district in the country.[1][4] After redistricting, the district picked up agricultural areas of Monterey County, and its median household income dropped substantially, to $90,456.
