Florida's 14th congressional district is an electoral district for the U.S. Congress and includes western Hillsborough County and southeastern Pinellas County, including most of Tampa. In the 2020 redistricting cycle, the district was redrawn to include almost all areas in both counties which face Tampa Bay, while northeastern Tampa and its neighbouring suburbs are redistricted into the 15th district. The 14th district also includes MacDill Air Force Base and Tampa International Airport.

The former 14th district, in 2003–2012, was located in the Gulf Coast region in Southwestern Florida and included all of Lee County and portions of Charlotte and Collier counties. Fort Myers, Naples, Cape Coral and part of Port Charlotte were located in the district.

From 2013 to 2017, the district was assigned to western Hillsborough County, Florida and Manatee County. After the district boundaries changed in 2017, it was located entirely inside of Hillsborough County See whole Florida state map for 2013, with the 14th district covering Sumter County, Hernando to Marion County: [http://www.flsenate.gov/PublishedContent/SESSION/HOME/REDISTRICT --ING2012/PUBLICCOMMENTS/h000c9047_35x42L.pdf h9047_35x42L.pdf] Congressional Plan: H000C9047.
