Ohio's 22nd district labeled most overpopulated in U S
The 1950 census shows Ohio's 22nd district covering all of Cuyahoga County outside Cleveland plus Lake and Geauga counties with 908 403 people. Frances E Bolton serves as representative. Several Ohio districts have populations under 200 000, including the fifth district with 166 932. The smallest U S district is South Dakota's second with 158 147.
