; Concord

, Marion
, Perry
, Union
, and Wayne
Townships in Fayette County
; and Washington Township
and the Cities of Miamisburg
and West Carrollton
in Montgomery
County.
Beginning with the 100th Congress
in 1987, adjustments were made by the legislature to the boundaries; reapportionment between Censuses
is unusual in American politics. A small part of the Montgomery County territory was detached, as were parts of Fayette County in Washington Court House
in Union Township
and the townships of Jasper
and Marion
. Part of Brown County
was added, Jackson
and Eagle
Townships. These were the boundaries for the rest of McEwen's service in Congress.
The district was largely rural and agricultural with no large cities. One of the major industries was the United States Department of Energy
's Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion
Plant at Piketon
, which manufactured uranium
for nuclear weapons. The district was 97 per cent white
with a median household income of $21,761.
In 1992, the district was altered significantly to accommodate Ohio's loss of two House seats in redistricting. The state legislature anticipated that Clarence Miller
of the neighboring Tenth District would retire, and thus combined the southern end of his district (which included Athens, Gallipolis, and Ironton) with most of the area previously represented by McEwen. Although the district did not include Miller's hometown of Lancaster, Miller decided not to retire and instead challenged McEwen in the Sixth District primary in 1992. The campaign was bitter, and McEwen eked out only a narrow victory. In November, McEwen was upset by Democrat Ted Strickland
, a prison psychologist. Strickland himself was defeated in 1994 by Republican Frank Cremeans, but won the seat back in 1996.
For 2002 the district was shifted dramatically eastward in an attempt to create a safe seat for Strickland while ending James Traficant's
congressional career by placing his hometown of Poland, Ohio, into the Sixth District. Traficant ran in the neighboring Seventeenth District instead, but lost. The district currently includes all of Columbiana
