KYLE — At the Tuesday, June 3, Kyle City Council meeting, an updated voting district map was approved as part of the redistricting process that began in June 2024.
The city of Kyle is divided into three single-member city council districts — districts 2, 4 and 6 — and four at-large city council districts — mayor and districts 1, 3, and 5 —for election purposes.
Every 10 years, the redistricting process takes place in response to U.S. Census data. During this process, single-member district boundaries are updated to ensure each has approximately the same number of residents.
The newly drawn lines hold the following Voting Age Population (VAP):
• District 2 - 10,941
• District 4 - 11,962
• District 6 - 10,821
For a complete demographic breakdown of the VAP and 2020 Census information, visit www.CityofKyle.com/Redistricting.
City of Kyle residents were able to view the proposed redistricting maps and provide feedback online and in-person at Kyle City Hall.
