      "district_summary": "Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District encompasses all of Bucks County and a portion of Montgomery County in suburban Philadelphia. Home to approximately 767,000 residents, it is one of the wealthiest districts in Pennsylvania with a median household income of $113,911 — roughly triple the national median. The district is well-educated (45.0% hold a bachelor's degree or higher), has a median age of 43.8, and a homeownership rate of 77.5%. The population is predominantly White (80.4%), with significant Asian (6.1%) and Hispanic (6.7%) communities. Rated R+13 by Cook PVI, the district leans Republican but is competitive — Fitzpatrick is the only Republican congressman in the four-county Philadelphia suburbs. The economy is anchored by healthcare, retail, education, and professional services, with Giant Food Stores, Central Bucks School District, and Bucks County government among the largest employers. Fitzpatrick has held the seat since 2017, succeeding his late brother Mike Fitzpatrick.",
