2017–2022

Between 2017 and 2022, the 4th district had the same configuration as in the 2023 plan.

2005–2017

Under the 2005 plan, Guanajuato had only 14 districts. This district's head town was the state capital and it covered three municipalities:
  • Guanajuato and Dolores Hidalgo in their entirety, plus 47 precincts in the north-east of Irapuato.

1996–2005

In the 1996 scheme, under which Guanajuato was assigned 15 seats, the district had its head town at Guanajuato and it comprised two municipalities in their entirety:
  • Guanajuato and Silao.

1978–1996

The districting scheme in force from 1978 to 1996 was the result of the 1977 electoral reforms, which increased the number of single-member seats in the Chamber of Deputies from 196 to 300. Under that plan, Guanajuato's seat allocation rose from 9 to 13. The 4th district covered the whole of the municipality of Irapuato.
