New York's 12th congressional district is a congressional district for the United States House of Representatives located in New York City. As of 2023, it is represented by Democrat Jerry Nadler, redistricted incumbent of the former 10th congressional district who defeated incumbent Carolyn Maloney in the August 2022 Democratic primary. Nadler has since stated that he does not intend to run for reelection in 2026. The redrawn District 12 includes the Upper West Side constituency (former District 10) represented by Nadler since the 1990s, the Upper East Side, and all of Midtown Manhattan. With a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of D+33, it is the most Democratic district in New York and tied with California's 37th district (D+33) and Alabama's 4th district (R+33) for the ninth most extreme. The district is the smallest congressional district by area in the U.S. The 12th district's per capita income, in excess of $75,000, is the highest among all congressional districts in the United States.
