Must be thirty years of age, nine year citizen of the U.S
To serve in the United States Senate, the official qualifications to serve are listed in Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution: 1) At least 30 years old 2) citizen of the US for at least nine years 3) must be living in the state you wish to represent during the time of your election

Yes, it is one of the requirements. If a senator does not live in the state they represent, then they cannot become a senator.
article 1, section 3 of the constitution says "No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen." so pretty much to sum this up, to be a Senator, you have to be 30 or older, have to have lived in the United states for 9 years, and you have to live in the state you want to run for.

The qualifications for being a state senator is defined in Article I, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution in which there are three qualifications. 1. Each senator must be at least 30 years old 2. Must have been a citizen of the United States for at least the past nine years 3. Must be (at the time of the election) an inhabitant of the state they seek to represent. The qualifications needed to be in the senate are, of course, more stringent then what is needed to be a member of the House of Representatives.
