[Qgis-user] plugin to find boundaries around points

[Holly Allen]

I've stumbled onto QGIS through a work project, and have a specific problem I'm trying to solve. We have a set of around 5000 locations which are broken up into about 500 districts. We'd like to produce a map of polygons representing the districts, and I would really, really like to not do that by hand if I can. 
 
I've poked around in QGIS a bit (mostly 3.4.2, but I also installed the latest 2.x version briefly to check it out) and worked through the list of plugins available, and I don't see a way to auto-generate boundaries between groups of points. I am about to write the code myself, but wanted to ask the group whether I'm just missing something obvious. Please point me to anything I'm missing! Since I haven't done anything in this field before, I may simply not be searching for the right terms. Bonus points if I can take the resulting boundaries and have them snap to state boundaries (in another layer) wherever the state boundaries happen to fall between the groups. 
 
Thanks, 
Holly
