The House of Representatives consists of a number of representatives that, for each district, can have a varying number. The whole House currently has a set member number of 435, but the census determines the size each state holds in that representation.
There are 435 members in the United States House of Representatives. Each member represents a congressional district, with the number of representatives per state determined by its population.
The number of District Courts in each state can vary. Typically, each state has at least one District Court, with some states having multiple District Courts depending on their population and judicial needs.
A census is taken for the purpose of realigning congressional districts based on changes in population. This ensures that each district has a similar number of residents and that representation in Congress is proportional to the population.
Since 1911 there hasn't been a "fixed ratio" used to determine the number of Representatives (e.g. 1 Representative per 10,000 people). The total number of Representatives was set at 433 plus 1 each for New Mexico and Arizona when they joined the union. The total number of Representatives has been 435 since then. (There was a temporary increase to 437 at the time of admission of Alaska and Hawaii as States.) We now use a "fixed house size" method to figure the number of Representatives. This means that a State's number of Representatives will increase or decrease after each census; BUT not based on a fixed ratio. A very good explanation is given on the US Census Bureau's website (http://www.census.gov/population/www/censusdata/apportionment/files/apportn.pdf) this is a PDF document titled, "Apportionment of the U.S. House of Representatives". (This title is in the Related Links section; just click it to go to the document.) I took my answer from there.

A political unit such as a state is divided into districts for the purpose of electing representatives to a legislative body. If the basis of election is population, with equal number of people represented by each elected member, the boundaries of the district must be changed after each census if the population changes. This is called redistricting (drawing new district boundaries).
