For example, by income, so the billionaires would have their 1 representative, millionaires would have 2, and then each income bracket would be represented like: you’d have a congressman for people who make $31,062-$32,491, etc
Alternatively, by demographics: So for example one representative for men aged 44.5-45.1, one for women 23.2-23.6, along with reps for trans men, and trans women, relative to their population…
Zip code is just one category by which people can be divided, but we have more in common with the people of a similar age or net worth than with many people who just happen to live nearby.
