Another I would add is CT which in 2022 the census switched from using the state's counties to regions to collect data.

Honestly possibly not for a while; counties are just so engrained in how many systems are organized and governments set up it's harder to change than before. One possibility is if there is an effort on some of these western states to split up these mega-counties - we saw AZ Rs propose breaking up Maricopa for instance but that was seen as partisan and hence is unlikely to become reality anytime soon.

I could also see AK reconfiguring some Boroughs again, especially if new development spawns up somewhere.

Maybe in a place like ID, Rs could try to break off more Conservative parts of Ada County if it starts leaning D countywide.
