Yes. Actually the above may be an overestimate. The ACS is like the census long form, but it is taken on a continuing monthly basis. For the census, the long form was used by between 1 in 5, and 1 in 8 of households, so as to provide reliable estimates for small areas such as census tracts. For the ACS this is spread out over 5 years, so that between 1/240 and 1/384 of households would be surveyed each month.

The Census bureau has just released ACS results for 2007, which is statistically reliable for areas with populations greaters than 65,000. It also released results for 2005-2007, which are reliable for areas with population greater than 20,000. In 2010, they'll release the results for 2005-2009 which will be the same as was as used for the Census, except covering a 5-year period. From then on, the results will be released on a continuing basis (eg 2006-2010, 2007-2011, etc.) which will give high quality estimates every year, instead of every 10 years.

The 2007 estimate is 395K, vs. 463K for 2005-2007. The 3-year period would include 8 months of data prior to Katrina. I just checked the 1-year ACS for 2005-7. It shows LA-2 at 598K, 392K, and 395K. The 2005 survey would have been 2/3 before Katrina.

LA-3, which includes much of Acadiana, but also included Plaquemines and St. Bernard parishes is down around 30K. LA-1 which includes the North Shore and parts of Jefferson Parish is down a perhaps 10K. LA-6 which included Baton Rouge is up about 50K for 2005 to 2006, and a few more K in 2007.

ACS for New Orleans and Baton Rouge:

2005: BR 205K, NO 437K
2006: BR 225K, NO 223K
2007: BR 231K, NO 239K

So NOLA is once again the most populous city in the state. Suburbs like Metairie and Kenner have come back some, but are down 5 to 10% vs. 2000. Slidell is up around 10% on 2000, as is Laplace. Harvey, Marrero, and Terrytown are roughly even.

I'm probably misremembering the details of the Australian system, but ...

If we had an Australian style system, redistributions would have already been triggered in all multi-district States but CT, HI, IA, KY, ME, MA, NH, NM, OK, OR, RI, UT, and WV. Australia requires current district populations to be within a certain range (which I think is 5% of the average). In addition, redistributions would have already been triggered in IA, MA, and UT due to the changed number of representatives for those States,

But if we had an Australian system, there might not have been redistributions in some of the other large States, since they also incorporate projections of future growth into their redistributions. High growth areas start out with below average populations and end up above average, and low growth or declining areas start out above average and end up below average.

Some States that I noticed:

Arkansas a large separation for a State with so-so growth, but with big gains in the Ozarks.

Louisiana has been discussed above. But with a loss of a district. LA-2 will probably have a majority in Jefferson Parish. Most of the districts have a corner of the State, and Louisiana has 6 corners. LA-6 will probably swing around to include Baton Rouge and areas to the west, instead of the east. Whatever district includes Alexandria will likely be gone in 2012.

New Hampshire could probably avoid redistricting at all. But since they use towns, there can probably be a couple swapped that will make the population a bit closer.

All the below average districts in New York are upstate or on Long Island. Since New York will lose 2 districts, at least one will come from upstate. Maybe they'll get rid of the skinny Rochester to Buffalo district. And if we're lucky, the Bronx-Rockland district. On the other hand, maybe they'll take advantage of the bridges and tunnels to create a 3-dimensional plan. Or maybe connect Westchester to Nassau county (New York at one time had a Kings, Richmond, Rockland in a CD).

Wow, my college residence is in the least populous district while my home residence is in the top ten most populous.

I was looking at the IL numbers. Are those compared to the likely new number of seats, or the current number?

Current number. So multiply by 18/19 for projected. And remember these are for a 3-year running total (2006-8).

When one adjusts for the likely apportionment, a number of those get even farther from the ideal (in parentheses).

Some of those are majority-minority districts and will survive by expanding (eg. IL 7, OH 11). The fact that all of RI's and NE's districts are on the list points to their potential loss of seats in 2020.
