Really, there are only three requirements to be elected (or appointed as a temporary office-holder) to the US House of Representatives:

  1. You must have been a US Citizen for at least 7 years
  2. You must reside in the STATE that your Congressional District is in (legally, you don't have to live in the district itself, just in the state)
  3. You must be at least 25 years old when elected (not when sworn in, but on Election Day) or the day you are appointed.
