The areas of Nakata and Toidewaka in the city of Takaoka. The district seat was located at the town of De (now the center of the city of Tonami)

On November 1, 2004, the town of Shogawa separately merged with the city of Tonami, and the remaining three towns and four villages in Higashitonami merged with the town of Fukumitsu from Nishitonami District to form the city of Nanto, and the district was dissolved as a result.
