Michigan's 11th stretches across Oakland and Wayne county suburbs northwest of Detroit, a historically Republican corridor that has shifted toward competitive territory as college-educated suburban voters have realigned over the past decade.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 19.8 points in 2020. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 3.8 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 16.0 points.
A population of 775,536, a 70% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $93,271 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Congressional District 4 and Congressional District 6.
The congressional districts whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
