History

The district was created in the 1972 redistricting act (1971 Wisc. Act 304) which first established the numbered district system, replacing the previous system which allocated districts to specific counties.[6] The 13th district was drawn somewhat in line with the western half of the previous Milwaukee County 18th district, though with some city of Milwaukee wards removed, and the village of Butler in Waukesha County added.[7]

The boundaries of the district has remained in the same vicinity since 1972, but the boundaries have moved somewhat. Now further south, and including more of Waukesha County.
