California's 52nd congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of California. The district is currently represented by Democrat Scott Peters.

The district is currently in San Diego County. It includes coastal and central portions of the city of San Diego, including neighborhoods such as Carmel Valley, La Jolla, Point Loma and Downtown San Diego; the San Diego suburbs of Poway and Coronado; and colleges such as University of California, San Diego (partial), Point Loma Nazarene, University of San Diego, and colleges of the San Diego Community College District.[5] Much of this territory was in the 50th District from 2003 to 2013.
