Oregon's 52nd House district

Oregon's 52nd House district after redistricting after the 2020 Census

District 52 of the Oregon House of Representatives is one of 60 House legislative districts in the state of Oregon. As of 2021, the boundary for the district contains all of Hood River County and portions of Clackamas, Multnomah, and Wasco counties. The district includes the population centers of Hood River and The Dalles as well as Mt. Hood. The current representative for the district is Republican Jeff Helfrich of Hood River.[1][2] This is Helfrich's second stint representing this district in the state legislature after being appointed to the office in 2017 but losing re-election.
