'''New York's 16th congressional district''' is a [[congressional district]] for the [[United States House of Representatives]] represented by [[Jamaal Bowman]].

The 16th district includes a small portion of the northern [[Bronx]] (specifically the neighborhood of [[Wakefield, Bronx|Wakefield]]) and the southern half of [[Westchester County, New York|Westchester County]], including the suburban cities of [[White Plains, New York|White Plains]], [[Mount Vernon, New York|Mount Vernon]], [[Yonkers, New York|Yonkers]], [[New Rochelle, New York|New Rochelle]], and [[Rye, New York|Rye]]. The district has the highest percentage of [[Jamaican Americans]], at 9%, out of any congressional district in New York, due to the large Caribbean population in the north Bronx.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Demographic Statistical Atlas of the United States - Statistical Atlas |url=https://statisticalatlas.com/congressional-district/New-York/Congressional-District-16/Ancestry |access-date=2024-01-14 |website=statisticalatlas.com}}</ref> 

In [[2008 United States presidential election|2008]], the previous version of this district gave [[Barack Obama]] his largest victory margin of any congressional district, a 90% margin (95–5%).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.swingstateproject.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=4161|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090305175409/http://www.swingstateproject.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=4161|url-status=dead|title=Swing State Project|archive-date=March 5, 2009}}</ref> The current configuration of the 16th district is strongly Democratic, though it is not as overwhelmingly Democratic as other districts in the city.

==History==
From 2003 to 2013, the district included the neighborhoods of [[Bedford Park, Bronx|Bedford Park]], [[East Tremont, Bronx|East Tremont]], [[Fordham, Bronx|Fordham]], [[Hunts Point, Bronx|Hunts Point]], [[Melrose, Bronx|Melrose]], [[Highbridge, Bronx|Highbridge]], [[Morrisania, Bronx|Morrisania]], [[Mott Haven, Bronx|Mott Haven]] and [[University Heights, Bronx|University Heights]].  [[Yankee Stadium]], [[Fordham University]] and the [[Bronx Zoo]] were located within the district. Before [[redistricting]], the [[2010 United States census|2010 census]] found that approximately 38% of constituents in New York's 16th [[Poverty in the United States|lived at or below the federal poverty line]], the highest poverty rate of any congressional district in the nation.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/south-bronx-poorest-district-nation-u-s-census-bureau-finds-38-live-poverty-line-article-1.438344|title=South Bronx is poorest district in nation, U.S. Census Bureau finds: 38% live below poverty line|last=Sisk|first=Richard|date=September 29, 2010|work=[[New York Daily News]]|access-date=February 7, 2014}}</ref> These neighborhoods were largely reassigned to the [[New York's 15th congressional district|15th district]] after redistricting, while the current 16th comprises most of the territory that had previously been the 17th District. The current 16th district, while still containing impoverished areas, such as some neighborhoods of [[Mount Vernon, New York|Mount Vernon]], also contains affluent areas, such as in [[Scarsdale, New York|Scarsdale]] and [[Rye (city), New York|Rye]], resulting in a more mixed-income demography.
